"Engrossing and highly readableI'd highly recommend this manga for readers interested in the history of martial arts, biographies of intriguing individuals, as well as strategic and philosophical ideas." Bernie Gourley "This is not an adaption of the Book of Five Rings (which is a philosophical/strategic piece) but rather an exploration of its themesThe illustration work is clean and friendly and this is a light but thoughtful exploration of the legendary man and his writings, especially in his later years."
