Book Description Paperback. Condition: Good. The mythical world of the Otori is unforgettable. Every so often a novel appears wholly unlike anything that has appeared before. The first book in The Otori Trilogy, it is a brilliantly imagined, seductive tale of war and intrigue, the intensity of first love, and the tragedy of betrayal. Set in an imaginary, ancient Japanese society, it is the story of Takeo, a young man born to a spiritual people known as the Hidden. Unbeknownst to him, his father was a celebrated assassin and a member of the Tribe, an ancient network of families with extraordinary, preternatural skills. When his village is pillaged, Takeo is rescued and adopted by the mysterious Lord Otori Shigeru. Under his tutelage, Takeo learns that he too possesses the skills of the Tribe, and with this knowledge he embarks on a journey that will lead him across the nightingale floor and to his destiny within the walls of the black-walled fortress at Inuyama.

Book Description Paperback. Takeo's world is turned upside down when his peaceful family and community are brutally murdered by a power-hungry warlord. Takeo escapes and is saved by Lord Shigeru of the Otori clan who, struck by Takeo's likeness to his own dead child, adopts him. But Takeo discovers there is more to his own family background with the arrival of Kenji, a master of The Tribe - a clan of assassins and magical warriors. Combining Takeo's story with that of Kaede, a beautiful young woman whose fate seems to be that men who desire her die, this magnificent and haunting epic story is full of adventure, revenge, honour and love, set in a mystical, medieval Japan. A Japanese "Romeo and Juliet", this tragic love story is the first of the Tales of the Otoro trilogy and will be relished by young adults.
