About this listen

A new generation, a relentless enmity.

As a boy, Arai Sunaomi was known as the Miracle Child and crossed between the worlds to walk among the dead. Now he has put aside his past to follow the way of the warrior. His aunt, Kaede, is considering making him her heir, and her General, Miyoshi Kahei, hopes to betroth Sunaomi to his daughter, Kinu. But there is one girl whom Sunaomi cannot forget - Utahime, who has been dead for seven years. Will he dare bring her back to life?

Utahime's brother, Masao, is Sunaomi's oldest friend and the only surviving relative of the great warlord Saga Hideki. When Masao disappears after a fight in the city, Sunaomi is charged with finding him. With his cousins Kiyoko and Kichizo, sibling assassins from the Tribe, Sunaomi sets out on a journey which will take him into an enthralling and dangerous world of spirits and supernatural beings, rebels, pirates and saints - the extraordinary and enchanting world of the Tales of the Otori.

Every since reading Across the Nightingale Floor, I have loved this series of books.

This particular mini series is light and entertaining, although I found sometimes the climax of certain key points throughout both books were vague and I had to listen to certain parts over again to understand what happened.

It may be that with audible the feel is different, but regardless a engaging great story...just ensure that you listen to the very first book in this series!

A great listen!
