Reviews
"Sano may carry a sword and wear a kimono, but you'll immediately recognize him as an ancestor of Philip Marlowe or Sam Spade." -- The Denver Post   "Rowland has a painter's eye for the minutiae of court life, as well as a politician's ear for intrigue." -- The New York Times Book Review   "Rowland uses her fine eye for detail to portray the intricate surface and roiling underbelly of life in a tightly structured, controlled society. Her Japan is a mix of Kabuki theater-like stylized formality, palace intrigue, and physical action that would do a martial arts move proud." -- The Times-Picayune (New Orleans)   "A careful, beautiful portrayal of a dangerous time in Japanese history . . . Rowland has created a compelling and lively series." -- Dallas Morning News    "As a fan of Sh o gun, it's easy to say that The Samurai's Wife provided me with the same sense of place and culture that was so invigorating in James Clavell's epic yarn. . . . Laura Joh Rowland is a pretty terrific storyteller." -- Chicago Tribune   "The compelling story line, evocative detail and suspense should engage newcomers and satisfy longtime fans alike. At a point when many series show signs of wear, Rowland's characters remain fresh." -- Publishers Weekly on The Assassin's Touch, " Sano may carry a sword and wear a kimono, but you' ll immediately recognize him as an ancestor of Philip Marlowe or Sam Spade." -- "The Denver Post" " Rowland has a painter' s eye for the minutiae of court life, as well as a politician' s ear for intrigue." -- "The New York Times Book Review" " Rowland uses her fine eye for detail to portray the intricate surface and roiling underbelly of life in a tightly structured, controlled society.
