Suspense

Nicholas Linnear is the character of The Ninja, The Miko, and White Ninja fame. Eric Van Lustbader hasn't written a Ninja story in many years and to those of us who are Ninja fans this new one is greatly appreciated. Nicholas wakes up buried in a coffin and must escape before it is too late. He then must discover who has decided to kill him and why. All this he needs to accomplish in time to ensure his business is not destroyed by sabotage. THE DEATH AND LIFE OF NICHOLAS LINNEAR is a short story jam packed full of excitement and the awesome skills that Nicholas spent many years honing to perfection. Eric Van Lustbader as always uses detailed descriptions to make the fight scenes a visual world that leaves you feeling as if you are watching from the sidelines. THE DEATH AND LIFE OF NICHOLAS LINNEAR starts fast and keeps you turning the pages, it is exciting to the very end. If you read Eric Van Lustbader's The Ninja series when they originally came out, reading this short story is going to make you want to read them all over again. If you have never read them, you'll love the character of Nicholas Linnear and want to read them. Thanks again for the new Ninja story Nicholas Linnear never fails to deliver.
