Obsidian Wraith Blade Book

A grieving husband is reborn in obsidian and shadow. As samurai clans feud over the Imperial Throne, a temple scribe named Shindara is plunged into the fire and ashes of the Genpei War. Torn from his home, he unwittingly falls in with a group of rebels who may end up teaching him more about life and death than his high priests ever did. While living among the vagabonds, he gains two close friends in a jovial thief and a princess-turned-rebel leader. From encounters with yōkai spirits to the rumblings of the end of an era, he finds himself drawn deeper into the dark realm of Yomi. And yet, the ending he fears might be the beginning he needs.
