Book Synopsis

Afro Samurai meets The Sword of Kaigen in this anime-inspired novella

This is no revenge story. I ain't got time for that. I've got errands to run and things to do and barely enough time to make it home before sundown. I don't care why folks are going around stealing ink. I don't care why the monks are acting kinda strange. I don't care that everybody is expecting me to save them. I might be a Sistah Samurai but those days playing hero were back when my knees didn't ache, and I wasn't the only one left. So leave me alone.

All I want to do is get home, drink some green tea lemonade, and enjoy my peace. I'm not asking for much, so why are all these demons daring to get in my way?

I am not the one. Not today.

Sistah Samurai is an Action Fantasy novella that is an homage to the anime, Afro Samurai. Both works feature a feudal Japan-inspired setting that is rife with anachronisms. In the words of Samuel L. Jackson, "Is that a motherf-ing RPG?"

"...this story is a love letter to the nerdy black girl who stayed up all night watching anime and buried her head in every manga she could find, but never saw herself represented - and certainly not as a heroine." - Goodreads Reviewer
