Nov 05, 2024 1:01 pm
Greetings dear Chroniclers,
How did November arrive so quickly? I swear with the trip coming up, that time is going faster than ever! I can't wait!!!!
Do you all have travel plans for this year or next?
Featured Indie Book: Only the Dead Face North
Today I wanted to share the latest book, Only the Dead Face North, from fellow indie author Laura Van Arendonk Baugh. I've enjoyed each of Laura's Kitsune Tales, set in a fantasy version of ancient Japan. Her latest is no exception, with even more twists and turns! I tore through this in a few days.
Fun trivia for you: Laura hiked the Kumano Road pilgrimage - the very route in this book!
Kazan became emperor in AD 984, at the age of 17. He was coerced into abdicating the throne at 19. He then took religious vows and became an itinerant monk until his early death.
This much, according to historical texts, is true.
What happened next is less certain.
When Naka no Yoritomo is assigned to escort high-ranking nobles on a pilgrimage, he brings along his household and his trusted onmyōji Tsurugu. But this pilgrimage is not merely a religious journey, it is a secret search for lost imperial treasure.
Humans and yōkai race to find a priceless jade flute, believed to have been hidden by Kazan along the Kumano Road pilgrimage route. Stakes are high as they compete not only for the inestimable value of the flute itself, but for the prestige of its discovery and its delivery to the politically-charged court of the shōgun, and what that will mean for both religious tolerance and a clan’s survival.
This is the fifth title in the Kitsune Tales series, but it can be read alone (with spoilers for previous stories).
