Three volumes in one! A prestige treatment of Inoue's epic samurai
series with bonus content, color pages, storyboard samples and more!
Real-life figure Miyamoto Musashi was the most celebrated samurai of all
time. The quintessential warrior-philosopher, Musashi authored A Book
of Five Rings, a classic treatise in the canon of world philosophy and
military strategy. But the path to enlightenment is an endless journey,
and to get there through violent means--by way of the sword--makes mere
survival an even greater challenge.
Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro's intertwining paths lead them toward
what will be the greatest samurai duel in Japanese history. Sasaki
Kojiro heads to Kokura for his new position as sword instructor for the
powerful Hosokawa Clan. Meanwhile, Musashi is at a crossroads dealing
with the aftermath of single-handedly destroying the mighty Yoshioka
clan. After he starts to question his quest to be invincible and his
whole reason for existence, will his confidence in himself ever be the
same?
