Hey guys just a surgestion, if any of you like storys that involve ninja assasins, majic, feudal japan, romance ect you should read the trilogy tales of the Otori, beggining with Across the nightingale floor by Lian Hern

The fourth book a continuation has just come out recently and I can't help but rave about how engrosing they are.

Wrong forum.

I have been meaning to read those, I've heard a lot of good things.

Right forum now. Tight call, though, Gal.

I've never heard of these books before. Looks quite interesting, though, and I think I saw this at the local used bookstore a while back.

I read them...thought they were alright, but wasn't THAT impressed. Maybe I'm just not into this Japanese culture thing.

I read the first book last year and it was very interesting. I got the second book ... but I can't seem to find it in my room or house, Razz

But it is very interesting.

Started reading the first book today. So far it's not bad, but I'm not overwhelmed. It's slightly above the fantasy fiction average, but mostly thanks to being well crafted. Not due to any great originality.
