August 1611. Jack Fletcher is shipwrecked off the coast of Japan - his beloved father and the crew lie slaughtered by ninja pirates. Rescued by the legendary sword master Masamoto Takeshi, Jack's only hope is to become a samurai warrior. And so his training begins.
But life at the samurai school is a constant fight for survival. Even with his friend Akiko by his side, Jack is singled out by bullies and treated as an outcast. With courage in his heart and his sword held high, can Jack prove himself and face his deadliest rival yet?

Should be in a higher age bracket
The story in of itself is good, however it is better suited to a 12+ age category given some of the content. Definitely wouldn't recommend for the 8-10 year old range.

Great book
A great story that immerses you into Japanese culture and language. Great action!
If only the narrator used a Japanese accent to say some of the Japanese words. Eg Kyoto

It's a young samarai at Hogwarts
i really enjoyed this book. Many of the characters and storyline align with Harry Potter, which actually shows the quality of the story. The narrator is superb, with great voices and use of the Japanese language.

Fantastic novel and excellent narrator
This is an entertaining and uncomplicated novel that gives great insight into the customs and training of samurai in feudal japan. The book is compelling as the main character who is training to be a samurai is not Japanese, and the friendships and strong bonds that are created between sensei's and students is endearing. I am going to continue with the series so I can read about more adventures of this young samurai and if you like YA, coming of age, Japanese culture and customs, samurai, and adventure, you'll like this book (and, She Named Me Wolf by Tenkara Smart has similar themes and is YA but has a more 'tragic' theme as part of the plotline). I recommend this book and Chris Bradford is a great author. Great description, believable dialogue and draws you into the characters and the story. The narration was also very good.
