In thirteenth-century Japan, the Red Banner of the ruling Takashi dynasty was stained with the blood of the people. The eternal love of the warrior monk Jebu and the lovely Taniko had been thwarted by the will of the gods and the winds of battle. Now the Zinja monk and his brilliant commander, Yukio, rally the rival Muratomo clan’s forces, to wage again the War of the Dragons – for control of the imperial throne. But victory did not end their labors. The new Shogun was consumed by jealousy and the greed of power. Jebu’s beloved, Lady Tamiko. was coveted by the tyrant. And the glittering-armored warriors of Kublai Khan were poised to strike by sea, in iron waves, against the sacred islands of snow-dusted peaks and silken pavilions – against Japan! The splendid tale of SHIKE is told in two volumes. LAST OF THE ZINJA continues from TIME OF THE DRAGONS.
Description
Shike: Last of the Zinja (Book 2) continues the sweeping epic of war, loyalty, and enduring love in thirteenth-century Japan. As the struggle for power intensifies, the fate of a nation—and the lives of those bound by destiny—hang in the balance.
The Red Banner of the ruling Takashi dynasty has been stained with blood, and the fragile hope for peace is quickly overshadowed by ambition and betrayal. Jebu, the legendary Zinja warrior-monk, joins forces with the brilliant commander Yukio to rally the Muratomo clan once more, reigniting the War of the Dragons in a final bid for control of the imperial throne.
Yet even victory brings no rest. A new shogun rises, consumed by jealousy and the hunger for power, threatening everything Jebu has fought for—including the woman he loves. As political intrigue deepens and loyalties are tested, an even greater danger looms across the sea. Kublai Khan and his armored forces prepare to descend upon Japan in a devastating invasion that could change history forever.
What You’ll Discover:
• The thrilling conclusion to an epic tale of war and destiny
• Intensified political intrigue and power struggles among rival clans
• A love story tested by conflict, sacrifice, and fate
• High-stakes battles and strategic warfare across land and sea

Why This Book Stands Out:
Last of the Zinja delivers a gripping and emotional finale, blending historical drama with powerful storytelling.
