Editorial Reviews

Scion of Seirin is a marvelous Japanese light fiction/western novel with a fantastic array of characters and a complex, multilayered plot. [It has] a rich world that's also deliciously terrifying at times. I fell in love with [the] characters, especially Kuroshi and Winston. Kuroshi is a brave, tough-as-nails protagonist who is also quite flawed and emotionally vulnerable, while Winston has so many flaws, it's hard to count them all, but at heart he's a caring and brave young man.
