Grey Ronin by Matthew S. CoxMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Price Of False Honor
This series must be read in order. The first book is Prophet Of The Badlands. The second book is Archon's Queen. This is the third book. I can't wait to read Daughter Of Ash!
Mamoru was raised to believe in the Shinto religion and ancient practices of Japan including a Samurai's duty to his Shogun. He knows little truth of his past and feels his parents died because they were too weak which makes it just. His chi allows him to perform superhuman feats as well as become one with machines. This makes him very valuable and well respected until the unthinkable happens. After being approached by Oni (at least that is his only comprehension of the being) to defect to the UFC, someone steals his honor and turns his Shogun against him. Fleeing for his life, and under the auspices of getting to the bottom of the mystery, he flees to Mars to get revenge and restore his honor. Will he ever find out who has destroyed everything he stands for? Can he become a Samurai again? Or will he forever be Ronin? Why would someone do this despicable thing? Can he trust anyone? Or will his quest to restore his honor only end in death?
***This series is suitable for adult readers who enjoy futuristic sci-fi action adventure set in a post postapocalyptic dystopian world filled with superstitions and prejudices where paranormal elements fight with elements of the government and society over the fate of anyone with paranormal powers :)
