Chronicles of the Cursed Sword, Book 1

Summary: Demons and warriors in feudal Japan
Review: Chronicles of the cursed sword follows a pretty standard formula for a Manga of its type. The hero, Rey Yan, posseses a demon sword of awesome power and uses it to battle the forces of evil which are threatening the land.
While containing all the traditional elements this is not a bad effort and the artwork is very well done. The only problems the book has stems from the feeling that you have heard all of this before. There are several points of originality that I did enjoy such as the fact that the sword can posess Rey if he is not careful (a fact that he sometimes embraces cheerfully). The first book does hold the promise of a good series if the writer can break away from the genre and create some originaly.
Despite is failings this is a good read and I look forward to the second book's release in November.
