Dalla quarta di copertina

The martial world of feudal 16th Century Japan is not only a tapestry of honor, politics, intrigue, and violence. It is also an intricate fabric woven with family, spirit, love . . . and sex. And while not defined by strength of arm or keenness of blade, the realm of the flesh can be as intriguing, political, and deadly as any armed conflict. Created by legendary Lone Wolf and Cub creators Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima, Path of the Assassin is adult manga at its most challenging-violent, complex, and boldly erotic.
