The Ronin's Path

The Ronin’s Path
Book Two of The Crimson Vengeance Trilogy
By A.K. Sin

A fallen prince. A cursed land. A path of blood, honor, and redemption.

Banished from his ancestral home and haunted by the ghost of his past, Kenjiro walks the path of the ronin-a warrior without a master. But the road through the northern mountains is far from empty. Villages are dying, rivers run black, and monstrous whispers echo through the mist. Something ancient has awakened. Something hungry.

As dark magic corrupts the land and the demon Ikuma-no-Kami grows stronger, Kenjiro and his allies-ninja, hunter, and outcast-must seek out the elusive Tengu monks. Only their ancient knowledge can offer a chance at salvation. But salvation has a price, and the shadows of Kenjiro’s sins grow longer with every step.

Meanwhile, behind the walls of Hoshino Castle, his beloved Hana descends into madness-used as a living sacrifice to feed the darkness his uncle has unleashed. Time is running out. If Kenjiro is to save her-and the realm itself-he must become more than a swordsman. He must become a legend.

Perfect for fans of dark fantasy, samurai epics, and spiritual quests in the vein of Ghost of Tsushima, The Witcher, and Prince of Nothing.
