My favorite book!!

Hi Everyboby!!

Today is my first class in English III and I’m a little confused about this first proyect.

Well i love to read and one of my favorites books is "The Otori´s Legends" or "The harsh cry of the hero" (i like the first title because it's more related with the history) the writer is Lian Hearn.

(Across the Nightingale Floor, 2002)

This book is the first of 5 incredibles Sagas. The story begins in an imaginary japanese island  (in the feudal Era of Shogunato) the main character is Tomasu, this young boy escape from the warriors of Touhan’s clan (Tomasu belonged a clan called "The Hiddens"). The clan of Touhan is looking for destroy the clan of Hiddens because they proclaim a different vision of life (never kill), when they almost killed him a men appears to save him; the men called Otori Shigeru is an ancient heir of the Otori clan.

Shigeru takes Tomasu and adopted him as his son; the story continues on how Tomasu tries to take revenge of those who killed his clan, but thanks to the teachings of Otori Shigeru begins to learn about life, love, bureaucracy and over every aspect of life.

The story gets darker later so if you still want to know I recommend reading this amazing series!
