The Samurai's Heart

by Walt Mussell

[phyllish]

What a fascinating story!  I loved reading about 16th Century Japan and the conflict between the Christians and the Buddhists and enjoyed learning more about Samurais and sword-making.

The story had the perfect pace.  There was mystery, action, intrigue, suspense and romance.  A great combination, especially added with history.  It was written in a compelling way that made you see Japan and experience the village as if you were there.  The characters were ones you related to and cared for.

Though the story is about a Christian and her struggles, the story is not Christian fiction as much as Historical fiction.
