Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

As elaborate as its predecessors The Ninja and The Miko , this epic melodrama set in present-day Japan features Japanese tanjian sorcery, troubled family histories, crime and political intrigue. "A distinctly good time for the unabashed thriller-reader, particularly those with a taste for the mystical, exotic and sexually kinky," said PW.

Product Description

"Lustbader has honed the brooding, goose-bumply sensation of sudden, violent death likely to burst out of the darkness at any moment into a unique art form."
LOS ANGELES TIMES
Nicholas Linnear is helpless as he watches his love and his life careen out of control. He has discovered that he is shiro nive , a life of honor and truth amidst greed and corruption. And through it all, stalks a perverse madman through the seamy streets and bureaucratic mazes of Tokyo, destroying anyone who stands in his way, with deadly precision and otherworldly cunning. And the one man who can stop him, Nichaolas Linnear, is shiro ninja. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just not good enough, Oct 17 2001

By	J. Brown (Bath, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: White Ninja: A Nicholas Linnear Novel (Hardcover)

Maybe it's my adult tastes. I'd picked this book up after several years to finish it off, I'd started with The Ninja back when I was a teenager, and I feel like I've grown up with the hero of the book, Nicholas Linnear. I was told there's now 5 books in the series. I just hope the rest aren't like White Ninja. Though a wonderful writing style, I found the book lacked imagination. Some of the scenes became so unrealistic, put there to inject a sense of drama and climax, but looking out of place. The climax to the book by the way was awful. What a complete disappointment. It slowly builds, then nothing. Nicholas does his usual three fingered gut thrust and monkey blow, but no twists, nothing that makes you think wow, that was a good read.

4.0 out of 5 stars The last GREAT Nicholas Linnear novel, Sep 13 2000

By	JR Geoffrion "consultant, photographer, audio... (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: White Ninja (Mass Market Paperback)

I LOVED 'The Ninja' and 'The Miko'... 'White Ninja' is the last GREAT Nicholas Linnear novel. Nicholas faces marital troubles when his past Japanese flame returns... Very detailed descriptions of the mountains in Japan... makes you wish you were living there...

1.0 out of 5 stars Too long and too boring., Jan 21 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: White Ninja (Mass Market Paperback)

This was pathetic. I HAD TO skip some parts. It was just TOO LONG AND NOTHING HAPPENED. What was he thinking when he made this book. I think that Lustbader is running out of ideas and FAST so he puts together whatever he can and comes out with this garbage. The end was bad and the fight scenes did not make sense to me at all. I have a good imagination and I crave action but this was stupid.
