Publisher's Summary

For the first time in years, life seems settled for Tiger and Del. They run a school for sword-dancers in the South. They're raising a two-year-old daughter. They collect income from their interest in a thriving cantina. Occasionally Tiger must dance against sword-dancers bent on killing him for forsaking the oaths and vows of the circle, but for the most part it's an idyllic life. Until Tiger's twenty-five-year-old son accuses him of being "domesticated."

Thus challenged by his own flesh-and-blood to reclaim his legendary status, Tiger, accompanied by Del and his son, embarks on a journey northwards that will test his sword skill and resolve, and lead him and Del into danger from an old enemy. Though Tiger had forsaken his magic years before, he now faces the choice to reclaim it, and to wield it, in order to save those he loves.

Worth it.

I loved this whole series. The characters are well thought out and very likable. The action and dialogue border fantasy and real life. I have never cared more about horses as characters. I never want Tiger and Del to end. This series deals with some tough topics extremely well while not coming across as preachy and shallow. I would think a Hollywood adaptation hard but could totally picture this whole series as an anime. From book 1 to 7 in my minds eye Tiger was pictured like Mugan from Samurai Champloo only more scars and different attire.

Will we see the adventures of Sula? I can dream.
