Review of 'The Last Samurai' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

This would have been a solid book, if it hadn't changed directions several times midway through. As it is, it's an amazing book. It's about a prodigy, raised, and home-schooled, by his unmarried mother. His mother won't tell him who his father is, telling him that it's better that he not know. He takes matters into his own hands.
