T. J. Perkins has a flare for
writing stories with young
heroes and heroines battling to become adults in strange and
fantastic worlds. Art of the Ninja-Earth is no different and doesn't
disappoint.
A modern tale with an ancient
and mysterious flavour, Art of the Ninja is set in today's Japan and tells
the story of Duncan, a Ninja in training in the Chaio village, whose world
is about to be turned upside down.
Full of adventure, romance and
wonderful imagery, the story is easy to read and will capture both YA and
Adult audiences.
Ancient artifacts, masters of
the Ninja Art, dangerous situations and a secret that threatens to destroy
Duncan and everyone he loves, Art of the Ninja has it all and you won't be
able to put it down!
I personally love Manga and
Anime, and it's obvious T.J. Perkins put a lot of research into Art of the
Ninja as it reads pretty much like a good Manga, so if you're a fan of the
genre, this is a definite must read for you :)
I really enjoyed it and
recommend it to anyone who loves Japanese tradition and a good adventure
book.
Happy reading

Action with some twists
I won't get into
a plot summary or spill any spoilers, but I will say that T.J. Perkin's
book, "Art of the Ninja - Earth (Shadow Legacy)" is a book filled with
action that contains a few twists that will leave the reader guessing what
will happen next. Right from the prologue you're thrown into the action,
and it makes you wonder what more mysteries will be revealed in the latter
portions of the book. Don't get me wrong, there are also some tender
moments to show that this isn't just a book about ninja combat and
training , they are still human after all. I believe this book has a nice
balance between martial arts, family and friend issues, love, and the
loyalty to community and clan. If you are looking for a very accessible,
entertaining read, look no further than "Art of the Ninja - Earth (Shadow
Legacy)".
