Have you been watching the new miniseries Shōgun? I’d love to discuss it with you!
Based on the 1975 novel by James Clavell, Shōgunfollows John Blackthorne, an English ship’s pilot (anjin) who finds himself shipwrecked in Japan in 1600 — some 30 years after my Seasons of the Sword books. The empire is in the endgame of the century-and-a-half-long series of civil wars. Blackthorne finds himself both a pawn and a player in a deadly game that will lead to the birth of a new Japan.
