read it first!
The Shogun is dead, murdered in the public square by 16 year old Kage rebel
Yukiko to avenge her family and in retribution for the evil hold that he has
over the dystopian land of Shima. He may be dead but Hiro (equally nasty
and Yukiko's former lover) has a plan to take power which includes marrying
Aisha, the Shogun's sister and secret Kage sympathiser. Yukiko has to stop
the wedding with the help of Buruu, the flying thunder tiger and Kin, the
former Lotus Guild engineer. Yes, the Lotus Guild - the Shogun's lot.
Yukiko has problems of her own as well, in that her ability to hear the
thoughts of animals and feel the emotions of anyone and anything is becoming
a curse. Meanwhile in Hiro's palace there works No One, below the radar and
beneath contempt, but one day.
