About this listen

Horace is missing. Months have passed since he was sent on a military mission to Nihon-Ja. Evanlyn is worried, and in company with Will, Alyss, and Halt, she sets out to discover what has become of their old friend. They find that Horace has become embroiled in Nihon-Ja politics. The arrogant Senshi Sect has rebelled against the rightful Emperor, who Horace supports.

Now he and Will must turn farm and forest workers into a fighting force that can face the highly trained Senshi warriors, while Alyss and Evanlyn must overcome their longstanding rivalry to seek aid from a mysterious group of mountain dwellers.

My favourite of the series.

This episode (?) book, is so full of adventure, variety, clever tactics, friendships, etc, etc, it was hard to put down. In fact I listened twice, one after the other, and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Loved it

Amazing but Will seemed to be given the title of question asker and irritating person. More like this please it was amazing.

The Emporia of Nihon-ja, by John Flanagan.

One of his best! I’ve been an avid reader of his books, ever since I bought a copy of the Ranger’s apprentice, one rainy day, when waiting for a train. Best thing I ever did, from that moment on I could not get enough. I even loaned a copy of this particular copy to my mother, and she was always begging me to let her read it again, as soon as I could I got a copy of every title he’s written. Yet I must admit, of all, the Ranger’s Apprentice books this is my favourite. In fact as he only puts out one book a year, I set aside some savings to get myself a Christmas present, of one of the Brotherband books, yet that has not stopped me from going back to the Ranger books when ever I get the chance. So if you’ve never read, or listened to one before, take Note. They’ll become an old friend you’ll return to again and again. Many thanks John, I truely love and recommend every one should read this book.
