Another fine Oba tale! I wouldn't expect anything less by Clint.

Fun twist to Oba's adventures, Clint! Not only did Oba talk more in this story than in most of his others, it was his talking that determined the outcome and saved the day!

I was quite privileged to publish numerous Clint and Oba stories through Rogue Blades Entertainment, the most recent and one of the fiercest, in NEITHER BEG NOR YIELD.

And I think I have a pretty good guess as to which anthology Clint and Lyn almost appeared together in.

What an alluring tale of mythology and culture, among a landscape of menace. Though Shintaro Oba didn't get to perform much action, I get the feeling that his soul-searching adventure sees much with his demon-hurting Koumakiri. I have not had the pleasure of reading C. L. Werner and look forward to more.

I've only read 1 or 2 other Oba stories and want to know about the demon-hunting end result as well!

I like monsters. This short tale does not disappoint! Bravo!

Yes, more a monster tale than a sorcerous one, but still exciting and entertaining!
