The Legend of Kamui #3

Plot

The body count continues to rise in this engrossing, swashbuckling third volume of The Legend of Kamui, set in feudal Japan.

Our hero Kamui is fresh off his training and begins to infiltrate the delicate hierarchy oppressing the countryside in order to begin tearing it down, piece by piece. Shōsuke faces off with a new assassin because of what he may―or may not have―witnessed. Ryūnoshin’s vendetta befuddles the chief headman as well as his lord. Meanwhile, Kamui’s fellow outcast Saesa takes on a more prominent role.
