Due next month (next year!) is Nick Lake’s The Betrayal of the Living, volume three
in the Blood Ninja trilogy (Atlantic
Books £12.99).
“Taro is at a crossroads: he has vanquished
Lord Oda for good, but with no land and no title, he has no hope of marrying
Hana, the daughter of a daimyo. So when Taro receives news of a murderous
dragon and the large reward for killing it, he and his friends find themselves
on a dangerous quest to slay the beast.
Their mission has the potential to save the
people of Japan – but failure will result in the deaths of thousands. And
dragons are not the only monsters they will encounter: the dead, led by the
odious Kenji Kira, have begun to rise, and they have Taro in their sights.”
In this conclusion to the Blood Ninja trilogy, the future of all
feudal Japan is in danger, and everything Taro holds dear will be threatened.”
