I decided to read this fantasy science fiction book The Scorpion, because of my fondness of samurai related stories. I was drawn to the cover more than anything else because of the intricate drawing of an enraged looking samurai. If it were not for the eye popping cover I would have missed out on an awesome action packed novel. I usually don’t read books like this, but after reading the first couple chapters I was surprisingly hooked. I can definitely say that the storyline of this book would ma...more

a striking beginning to the series. the writing falters at times but fundamentally it’s strong and enjoyable, and the multiple POVs are imo well-balanced. Shoju, in particular, is an excellent tragic hero — channeling a bit of Macbeth, perhaps.
the imperfect Japanese is annoying, though — I’d rather places be referred to just by their anglicized names (which to be fair sometimes they were) than have the messy grammar (“Shiro no Soshi”, anyone? lol).

I started reading this basically because I got into the Collectible Card Game. I enjoyed the book much more than I thought I would and am excited to read the rest of the series in the near future. It was a great introduction into the culture and motives for the scorpion clan. Not only does this series give you some history into the world of the game, but each book focuses on one of the major clans and gives you that unique perspective.

The most striking part of this series is the strong and consistent themed groups. Each clan has an internal philosophy and creed, amazingly, the characters reflect such. The prose are young adult, but the plot is subtle and complex, also, zombies.
Legend of the Five Rings was the expansion that made me quit playing Magic the Gathering -- but the novels can't be blamed for power creep.

This was the first book. That began an interesting series.
Kind of urban fantasy, meets Asian feudal traditions.
I did enjoy this series. Plan on reading it again.
Series has central story. Each novel, different clan gets more involved.
Plus gives more detail on each clan itself.
Worth checking out, if you can find it. It is an older series.

Recommends it for: fantasy readers, Asian mythology
An interesting read set in a world of monsters and magic. Based on several Asian mythologies, this book tells how one clan's bid to 'save the world' actually starts its downfall.
It's a great read for fantasy lovers, especially those interested in samurai and the feudal era.

Finally after getting all scrolls (books) i started reading this year. Although i already red the first Book i was still fascinated and hope this is the beginning of an epic story.
Interessting plot if you know the RPG Legend of the Five Rings, fascinating combination of the feudal Japan with a fantasy... 320 pages easy to read, give it a try.
I'll start know the 2nd Book :)

I'm really surprised how much I liked this book.
Well written and exciting.
I thought there would be more to do with magic and demons and monsters, etc, but somehow the author managed to keep it exciting while limiting the fantasy side of things and making them more implied and underlying to the story.

Being a fan of the Legend of the Five Rings CCG, this series of books were a must read. Of course the fanboy element probably added an additional star to the rating. This volume has Bayushi Kachiko - 'nuff said!

This was simpler than I would have liked had it been a tie-in book. But given the tie-in constraints, this was an excellent little read. Good for an hour or two of fun.

This book made me want to buy the whole series! Now I have them all except one!
It was better than I thought it would be. It was interesting to have all the different animal clans in a japaneseish setting.
This story really captured the tragedy of samurai movies. I was always surprised by what happened next. :-)
IMO (and my only quibble) the author repeated certain phrases to often for my tastes.

Surprisingly good. Provides interesting insight into the coup that led up to the Clan War and the Day of Thunder
Legend of the Five Rings is a samurai fantasy that arose in the mid-'90s as the shared setting for a collectible card game and roleplaying game. Though familiar with the property itself, I had only vague knowledge of the events upon which the setting's story, an ongoing saga, opened. So I was eager to read this, the first in a series of novels that consolidate the events of this 'Clan War,' which kick off the rest of the story that I know so well.

This was more enjoyable than it deserved. Technically, it was poorly written. It abuses third person omniscient with a vengeance. Characters navel gaze like there's no tomorrow and smile all the time. The smiling! Every thought, every memory makes these characters smile again and again. This is a dark, samurai fantasy, why is there so much smiling? Sigh.

*sigh* I liked this book, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It's the first of a series of tie-in novels for the Legend of the Five Rings card game (I believe at the time this was published the RPG wasn't out yet) and it tells one of the biggest stories in L5R canon, the Scorpion Clan coup and the Clan War. To that end, the parts that were most interesting were those whose points I did not already know from the RPG books. The writing is not the purplest I've ever seen, but it's definitely in...more
