About this listen

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?

Great Japanese!! Great story... Wish I was a samurai now or maybe learning the art as it seems all so interesting!

A step in time, loved it!

for those old enough this is a boys own adventure, also a youthful version of the epic "Shogun" by James cavell.
for teens this is an exciting journey to historic Japan before too many Europeans arrived to change the Japanese forever.
young Jack is stranded but taken in by a great lord, taught customs and language, and make both friends and enemies in a beautiful but hostile land.
I will be buying book 2 asap

exciting

fantastic story, but narrator was a bit annoying... many Japanese names were terribly mispronounced.. he had a good range of voices, but made Jack sound quite whiny

great story... one of my favourites
