Fate is a fickle thing, fortune a double edged sword."Being born into wealth and privilege may be the dream of most, but a fat, friendless child with no company but his books will find that money brings no real comfort.I was such a child and came quickly to the conclusion that to endure the mundane is not compulsory when one can retreat to one's thoughts and live the life of a samurai.I chose my own path. An existence of honour and adventure which I shared with my beloved fellow warrior, Hyung.Even I, at times, thought him to be a figment of my imagination, so when he appeared as a flesh and blood man in the offices of the Yakuza organisation, the Tatakai-gumi, my world was turned upside down."Kanno Sakamoto is a renaissance man. Homosexual, archer, swordsman, gardener, chef, pianist, gangster and fantasist - here he tells his own story.A dark, often humorous and sometimes challenging tale of love, lust and murder which is not for the faint of heart.
