甲賀忍法帖

Kouga Ninpouchou

To settle a dispute over the shogunate succession, Ieyasu Tokugawa has set in motion an ultimate trial. Two rival ninja clans, the Kouga and the Iga, are pitted against one another in a lethal conflict, and the clan that emerges victorious will hold dominion over Japan for the next thousand years. Caught in the crossfire of this brutal war is an impossible love affair between Gennosuke of the Kouga and Oboro of the Iga. As the designated successors of their respective clans, the two lovers find their destinies inextricably tied to the fates of their families. In the midst of this massive struggle, the star-crossed pair must confront a devastating choice between their feelings and their duty. Can their bond overcome a four-hundred-year-old blood feud, or is their love doomed to end in tragedy? This is the first entry in the long-running Ninja Scrolls novel series.
