J. Mariño, author of The Chronicles of Good and Evil, the international bestseller that has already attracted more than a million followers in seven countries, presents this prequel to his trilogy that tells the story of Joyko, one of the characters that brought him out of anonymity in 2013.The story of this novel takes place around 1448 in the feudal Japan that saw Joyko's birth, with the Onin War in the making. Mariño once again uses his narrative skills to make for a thoroughly cinematic read, recreating an atmosphere rich in detail and feeling that transports the reader into the heart of the action, telling Joyko's story in the first person, and also that of Hiken, the legendary sword made by Muramasa. This fantastic book recounts the events that earned the bloodthirsty sword the nickname the Red Death, and takes us back to the Muromachi period, with the real protagonists of the period as characters. All this makes this splendid novel a firm candidate to become a classic of Japanese-themed literature in the Spanish-speaking world.
