review 1: Another book I feel like I missed the boat on. I'll come clean and admit I only got a hair over a quarter through (page 50 out of slightly under 200 in the main text) before bailing. I'm not sure if the blame lies with the original author or the translator, but I suspect both. (Certainly not the reader! *cough*) The issue I'd lay at the feet of the author is the way that the book's main character is a brilliant swordfighter and strategist, but for seemingly no particular reason; He'll "just feel" the right strategy, or he'll just think he's leaping at a guy and swinging his sword when he's defeating seasoned master samurai. This, to put it mildly, does not generate a lot of tension or interest. As gravy, add on what seems like a very literal translation that makes the book... more read in "This happened, then this happened" style and I didn't feel like I was missing much by putting this one down early.
review 2: aku lebih suka ini dr pd heike :pheike bagus, tp ini lebih seru :Dapa mungkin krna heike lebih bantal?hehehe....tokoh utamanya bukan pemimpin klan, tp seorang ahli strategi perang, Yamamoto Kansuke..semenjak bergabung dengan takeda shingen, kansuke melakukan berbagai macam taktik utk memperluas wilayah kekuasan takeda..Kansuke merancang taktik yg mendukung keinginannya utk mendudukkan katsuyori anak dr putri yuu, seorang selir, sebagai penerus klan takeda. Katsuyori dianggapnya lebih pantas dr pd Yoshinobu, pewaris yg sebenarnya.. kisah ini bener2 berputar disekitar kansuke, jd kisah ini pun selesai setelah kematian kansuke..kadang2 tindakan kansuke kejam, tp entah kenapa, aku ga bisa benci ma kansuke, kadang ga suka, tp ga bisa benci :pKalau kemarenan baca heike sedikit cerita perangnya, di buku ini malah perang melulu :p less
