Usagi Yojimbo: The Shrouded Moon

Rating:
Summary: An excellent addition to the series.
Review: Shrouded Moon is another wonderful collection of Usagi tales. There are several tales that stand alone well and Stan Sakai shows that he is picking up several of the threads that were laid aside temporarily to wrap up the Grasscutter saga.
***MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD***

Chizu meets with Lord Hebi to "discuss" some of her recent failures and Kagemaru attempts to use this opportunity to assert control over the Neko Ninja. Who will the Ninja follow?

Inazuma reappears with the innocent that accompanied Jei before Usagi killed him Grasscutter I. And it seems Inazuma is similarly fixated on Usagi.

Most of the rest of the book concerns the adventure Usagi and Gen become caught up in when they encounter Kitsune again.

On the whole, while this volume would be a decent introduction to the characters, anyone seriously interested would be better off starting at the beginning or reading volume 6: Circles to get to know the characters. For any devoted fan, well, you'll probably buy it no matter what I say. And you won't be disappointed.
