Advance Praise

"Fantastic! Just what I was looking for to pass on to a reluctant reader. If this doesn't trigger an interest, I don't know what will." – Reader

"My very first description of the Ninja series is this - Unputdownable. Being an avid Young Samurai reader, my expectations from Mr. Bradford were, naturally, rather high. And I am extremely pleased to say that not only did he meet them, he actually raised the bar (considerably)...a great read for all fans of the Young Samurai series. Not only does it contain swashbuckling action, nail-biting suspense and significantly good readability, it manages to diversify the protagonist's characteristic elements - much like the Samurai series, but as mentioned before, in a less bulky (relatively speaking) narrative." – Reader
