EL - ESSENTIAL

When Jimmu was ten, his father woke him up, explained that he had dishonored the family, and then his father committed a form of suicide called seppuku. His father's samurai then told him that his father was framed and the evidence was actually forged. Jimmu was told that he must kill Lord Ankan, the one who forged it. When Jimmu grows up and goes to fulfill this task, he faces a moral dilemma. How can he kill Lord Ankan when he has taken him in and trusts him?

This was a good book, well written. It had a decent plot, and it was enjoyable. I would recommend it to anyone.
