About this listen

Expedition leader Hiram Kane is in Japan when the storm of the century hits. He joins the rescue mission as flash floods cause chaos, death and destruction.

Yakuza boss Katashi Goto is retiring from the mob. Before he does, there is one more thing to achieve: revenge over a centuries old enemy.

When their two very different worlds collide, Kane is forced to make a choice. He has always known honour is worth fighting for. When challenged by Katashi, he has to decide if it is also worth dying for.

The Samurai Code is the first instalment of the Hiram Kane adventure series. For fans of Russell Blake and Clive Cussler, Steven Moore's breakout action thriller will leave you breathless.

Adventure novels wouldn't normally be a genre I am attracted to however I listened to this book on a long drive and it kept me on the edge of my seat.....quite literally! The story was not only entertaining and well written, but educational at the same time. Loved it and can't wait to read the next adventure of Hiram Kane.

A great story made even better in audio

This was the first book of Steve's I read and also the first one I listened to on audio book.

The prologue in the book introduces us to the ancient world of the Samurai and how they lived and had honour even among defeat.

The book then jumps to present day where Hiram is introduced during the Tsunami as he goes and rescues people who have been caught up in it.  Hiram then moves on and the Tsunami follow him.

Eventually Hiram ends up on an island where there is a museum, which holds an ancient Samurai suit.

It is a this point we are introduced to some new characters, a Yakuza boss, Katashi Goto,  and his minions.  The Yakuza boss is looking to retire from the Yakuza and move into a monastery, but before he can do this he has to rightfully claim what is his, the Samurai Armour.

The action then kicks up a notch as Hiram tries to protect the armour and also the girl at the front desk of the museum from the Yakuza boss and his henchmen.

This is a nice short story, but full of action and keeps you wanting to read more all the time.

I also listened to this on Audio book, through Audible, and the narrator, Kenneth Bryant, brought the book to life really well.  I could really tell the differences between the characters and Hiram's English accent as well as Katashi's Japanese accent were both done really well.

Great introduction to the series
