And I just read your book in Indonesia language, it's very awesome. I did not believe it that the writer is came from outside Asia. I choose your book because I miss very much Japanese litterature, btw I'm also fans of Eiji Yoshikawa, so when I read this book, all my thoughts dreamed about the land of warrior same like Eiji's description. Thank you for bringing it back, I wait for your next amazing work. Ciao, Cahya Hi Lesley
