By Amazon Customer I've always depended on the reviews from fellow Amazon readers, and it's guided me to some great books I'd have otherwise not read. This, unfortunately, is one of those "how-the-hell-did-this-get-5-stars" situations that has driven me to write a review (something I would typically not do).The story is relatively sound, and in the world of martial fantasy, certainly good enough for a casual read and peaked my interest. The writing, however, is largely terrible. Nightblade reads like a second draft rushed to publishing. The flow is constantly, consistently spoiled by repetitive language, repetitive paragraph structure, and some just downright ****y sentence structure. For example:"The man lived and breathed swordsmanship because from the man's glances Orochi could tell he was about to ask about Orochi's blade"That is a horrible sentence. It's awkward, garbled, and manages to use the name Orochi twice in short order. Likewise, there have been several instances of back-to-back paragraphs stating the same thing in slightly different ways. Use of the word "kingdom" in three consecutive sentences, the staggering amount of times the world "cycles" appears in this book, etc.The potential is there, certainly, and I imagine I may enjoy the second book in the trilogy much more if I can bring myself to read it. I've only made it to about 80% of the way through Nightblade by aggressive skipping of paragraphs and pages when the writing gets under my skin. Perhaps I've just been spoiled by the likes of Will Wight, Jim Butcher, Pierce Brown, Robin Hobb and Scott Lynch (to name a few).If you're not the type of person to be bothered those sorts of grammatical and structural issues, you'll probably really enjoy the book. If you're like me and find the experience easily ruined by clumsy turn of phrase, then skip this one. While I appreciate the enthusiasm of the book's fans, I have a very hard time understanding how this is a 5-star-near-perfect effort.
28 of 32 people found the following review helpful. Dark, gripping and beautifully written By K66 From the first chapter, this book was dark, gripping and beautifully written. Ryuu, a young boy, is orphaned in a tragic bandit attack, but is rescued by a strange warrior named Shigeru. Shigeru adopts Ryuu and raises him, training him in combat and to use "the sense." Meanwhile, there are two other concurrent storylines unfolding, as well. Takako is a beautiful young girl who is sold into a brothel by her father. Moriko is a bright young girl who is taken away from her family to be raised in an abbey when a monk discovers her ability to use "the sense." Eventually, the paths of the three will cross and the consequences of their actions will change their entire nation.The author doesn't waste time world-building, but before you know it, you are swept up in the world of warriors, monks, courtesans and the dangerous "nightblades" and "dayblades" I love that Ryuu is such a believable character - he is young, impatient and can act just like a regular kid. At the same time, you can see him growing into a hero who is going to play a pivotal role in his world. I also really like that Moriko is such a strong female character and I can't wait to see what happens to her and Ryuu in the next book!
16 of 19 people found the following review helpful. Very good, but not great By Amazon Customer The book is set in Japanese-like fantasy world, where sensing(magic) is tightly controlled by nonreligious temples. This a coming of age assassins story with focus on character development and the author manages to create very believable characters with flaws, emotion and codes of honor.My cons are:The childhood of the character does suspend my belief due how adult they act. This resolves it self as they grow older.For how much emphasis that is put on the fighting abilities of characters in book, the climatic fights are over very quickly and without much detail.I am not at stickler for sentence structure and punctuation (English is my second language) and normally I don't even notice most mistakes, but there were a few times I had to reread part many times before I was clear on what the author was saying.All in all a book I enjoyed reading but probably won't reread.A really good choice if you enjoy a character driven story where the character have strong codes of honor
