I enjoyed thios book! It had a lot of new info on culture since I am not well versed with the culture of Japan. This book was a good thrilling read making you wonder what is actually going to happen. I think it had a couple of slow parts but overall was good!

This engaging and atmospheric book follows Michael Brown, a recent graduate escaping the pressures of adulthood by teaching English in Japan. Initially thrust into the Japanese countryside, Michael stumbles upon an ancient mystery that fuels his desire for adventure. Returning to Tokyo, he reconnects with the morally dubious Johnny and meets the enigmatic Chihiro, and together they embark on a perilous journey across Japan. The story unfolds with a mix of cultural exploration, suspense, and action as the trio faces treacherous enemies, unforgiving landscapes, and the betrayal of one of their own. A gripping tale of mystery, survival, and self-discovery, this book is both an ode to Japan’s rich history and a thrilling adventure.
3.5/5.
