Jack is hired to find a legendary Japanese sword, a katana stolen from the Hiroshima Peace Museum and brought to New York City. Central characters include the members of a weird Japanese cult, a young Japanese businessman (who is the brother of a character killed in Legacies), and his three Yakuza bodyguards, plus Hank Thompson, the Kicker cult leader from Bloodline. The cult, the businessman, the Yakuza, and the Kickers are looking for the sword as well.

Following Jack's usual m.o., he maneuvers all sides into a bloody melee from which he plans to waltz away with the fabled katana. Of course, when things don't go as planned, Jack must improvise (and he hates to improvise).

By the Sword takes F. Paul Wilson's trademark breakneck pacing and interweaving storylines to a new level.

I loved this book, The story is one of my favourite in the RMJ series. The ninja cult, the kickers, yakuza and a magic sword all add to the great story with plenty of intrigue and action. With Jack caught in the middle and playing all sides off against each other, it just works so well.

Sadly this book is also narrated by Dick Hill and although he does a better job than he did in the last instalment, it still isn't the greatest. It didn't totally spoil the book though, so give it a go.

Amazing story, let down by the narrator

Unfortunately, the regular series narrator isn't used for this book or the next. It really ruins the experience. His take on Jack's voice is terrible and turns him from a charming hero to sleaze ball. His female voices are almost incomprehensible and mostly mumbled. The mix is also the worst in the series.

New narrator ruins book

This and Book 11 are definitely the weakest in the series, so far. Not the best story and the narrator for the 2 is awful.

But the reason these are the worst? The word TOTALLY. Over and over...

Totally not the best entry
