Additional Reviews:

"It's a page-turner rich in striking ideas, unexpected action and fascinating cultural and language secrets! This pacey, intelligent yarn brings together feisty young modern characters, epic derring-do and an ancient mystery." — Simon Higgins, author of Moonshadow: Rise of the Ninja and the Tomodachi series

"Masterfully written, this debut from Leza Lowitz and Shogo Oketani will leave readers pleasantly haunted and hungry for more." — Linda Gerber, Author of Now and Zen and The Death by Bikini Mysteries.

"How wonderful to find such a story of inspiration as Jet Black and The Ninja Wind, revealing how heroism can be born even from roots in confusion and self-doubt. Enjoy the read and then let Jet Black's story inspire you to ride your wind as she did hers. Find your gift. Live your promise." — Stephen K. Hayes, Black Belt Hall of Fame, Author of The Ninja and Their Secret Fighting Art and The Ninja Defense

"In Jet Black and the Ninja Wind, multiple award-winning author, poet and translator team Leza Lowitz and Shogo Oketani make their first foray into young adult fiction with a compulsively readable tale whose teenage heroine must discover if she can put the blade above the heart—or die trying." — Japan Today

"If you need a martial arts fix this summer, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles redux—which has garnered lackluster reviews—is thankfully not the only option. For a refreshing spin on the genre, try Jet Black and the Ninja Wind instead. This young adult novel delivers action, but also digs deeper." — The Diplomat

"The first in a planned trilogy, it's both a balls-out adventure tale and an intriguing portrait of multiple cultures. It's also the recent winner of the Asian/Pacific American Award for Young Adult Literature…" — Alibi.com

"Action-driven and rich in history, this novel is akin to a teen Da Vinci Code with ninjas; the high-stakes plot is woven with layers of mythology, intrigue, and romance. … Give this book to anime fans or anyone seeking an engaging and thought-provoking read." — School Library Journal

" Jet Black and the Ninja Wind is a young adult novel that will entertain readers with action and romance while also exposing them to Japanese culture and history, focusing particularly on the Emishi tribes and their struggle to save their land. The Buddhist thread that runs through the story makes it a natural choice for budding practitioners." — Shambala Sun
