Reviews for The Guin Saga Book 1: The Leopard Mask

A rousing tale of intrepid heroes, horrid villains and wicked supernatural creatures. -Publishers Weekly The Guin Saga was the most [inspiration for Berserk]. I started reading it in junior high and I'm still reading the new volume every month. - Berserk creator Kentaro Miura This is classic fantasy at its best. - Book Sense (Fall 2003 Science Fiction and Fantasy Top Ten) Readers should be warned that once you start this journey, it will be nearly impossible to leave it unfinished. - SFRevu Japan's answer to The Lord of the Rings. - The Globe and Mail Kaoru Kurimoto manages the flurry of situations being set up and resolved like the trick of a putting a hand on a table with fingers spread out, then stabbing a blade between the outstretched digits. The speed and coordination is that amazing. -Scott Green, Ain't It Cool News
