Katana Godan Nemesis An Epic YA Fantasy Series Book 5 eBook Ken Warner Reviews
Fushi is finally revealed, as too the truth behind Osaka. A philosopher would've pointed to the sage beyond years in the bearer of their attention, such that the views and outlooks so unshakeable could've only have ever come from he who you seek. The deferral by Nash and other masters could have in hindsight pointed to clues long sought after by Katana and her comrades. Osaka's capacity to have survived the fated night of the murders of his ward's parents. The absence of one during the presence of the other and a further array of clues that only in hindsight do they show that one plus one equals two; where before the fickle master same of hindsight, lent it's understanding it had always equaled three.
In substantive truth none of it possibly ever mattered, given that fate and destiny would've seen it play out their way, even if they had to take another road in getting there. Some would ask how many must die in keeping the girl from being used in ways that mean the ancient foe will obtain what he seeks. Others will do similar but their attitudes concern how long it will take for the same girl to take control of the wheel steering her fate. The problem with the last isn't in taking control of it's steering, its in knowing where it needs to be steered to, so that the path of least resistance can be taken. Either way or through something else entirely, none of it really matters when at the end of the day a fated young woman has a best friend and adopted brother to rescue.
On the pinnacle and precipice of finally learning why the baby Osaka retrieved after the tragedies of her becoming an orphan, the menace that is Jaaku continues to take and take from her, leaving her bereft of those whom she looked up to in the absences of her parents and leaned on when times grew hard. Since launching his span of countless death because he fears so terribly his own mortality, Jaaku's actions both overt and covert have taken more from her than he has likely taken from other single person in the time that nature intended to cut short long ago. Her biological parents, her surrogate mother, the newly discovered best friend of her late father, another surrogate albeit only briefly, and one of the boys who introduced her to her first teen romance. Now the only man capable of sharing the lonely burden of immortality, should she find the key to achieving her own, has been forced into chosing a path that will end the life of the first ever immortal master in the hope that he'll get back another of his wards; and take the menace he in part helped to create with him into oblivion.
In as much as there is joy in getting her self-adopted brother back safely, not all can fully be appreciated when its bathed in the visual memory of watching the only father figure she has ever known, walk to his death. Although nihilistic, you couldn't possibly fault her for seeing that everything she loves turns to dust. That the puppeteer to every one of her hurts is the same fossil that should've gone into death at his own allotted time. The monster of her dreams is the same one of her real life. A man, if he can even be called so anymore, who has sucked the life out countless sacrifices to keep him unnaturally alive to stave off the failure of his own mystery. Its not a very good place for a young woman still discovering the limits of her abilities to be trapped in such a respective mindset. It's ability to make sufferers embittered to the point of making mistakes themselves, cannot be looked past. How can she celebrate the return of one of her lifestrings when for every one she gets back or protects, another is cut off. Without the right support she could fall foul of making the same mistakes of the nexus masters that have come before her.
The loneliness of immortality has already been visited upon her before she ever even considered solving the riddle that would take her there; if she was ever meant to solve it. Barely a teen, Katana is forced to face the mysteries and pressures that the two known nexuses that came before her, faced much later in life. Mortality is the norm of species evolutionarily required to forever adapt as natural selection shapes their existence to ensure only the strongest survive. She's already been shown the face of loneliness well before its potential installment into her long off future. The what if's, the how come's, the where could's, the why not's, and the many other questions, whether they should have come before or after, cannot assuage the embroiled conflagration eating at the posterity of Katana's usual public facade. Rightly so she has reached a boiling point that has been steadily simmering since a few short months after her birth.
Between the Arashi and Jaaku and through the faults singly his own, the immortal master has cost a debt that can never be paid or even offset by his later patrition. Whilst she loved him dearly, the immortal master's failures some centuries ago to act on what he knew to be necessary, but couldn't bring himself to do properly, has resulted in the greatest hardships of Katana's life. Through his latest failure there's more added to the bill of debt. The futility and the ways that things have happened when alternatives were not only recognised but also argued against, is among greatest tolls. Sacrifices are generally only seen as worth their weight in gold when they've been successful in achieving the things they set out to. When they miss their mark hindsight becomes a bitter pill, swallowed past the lump taking up nearly the whole of one's throat, only to twist and turn upon itself when it reaches the stomach its destined for. How quickly grief can turn to hatred, and hatred to grief, and both to utter despair and back again.
For a young woman adamant that her birth was to serve as the means to quell the one thing no other in existence could, she knew deep down that she was born to do one massive thing that did not ensure her ongoing survival, but instead was aimed at ensuring the same for the people she'd come to love. In the face of as yet unrealised abilities that might bridge the canyon between able and unable, Katana is prepared to also make the ultimate sacrifice. The hardest part was never the acceptance of such a truth, but is that it comes after the loss of so many who otherwise might've survived; if only she'd been able to achieve the impossible before her allotted time. The resolution she shifts toward in her grief however shows that she could very well make the same mistake she privately curses her mentor for. Whilst there are trends in how those with losses react, it is in the reactions where uniqueness can start to shine, or alternatively become an oblique mess.
Loss will shape the bearer's life, that isn't a question ever needing to be addressed, its a foregone conclusion. But how the bearer uses it, or is used by it, is where uniqueness begins go shine. They can fuel demise or they can be strapped to the feet of the bearer as they walk through life, fueling them with the rockets that can permit them to soar to places unseen by other's as they walk through their lives. Katana's rockets could stall and explode the very things they're strapped to, so as to leave behind a wreckage of parts. Or they could provide the fuel to go where none before have, thereby permitting her to rid the world of an hitherto barely touched cancer attached to peoples' lives.
Like Katana's forebears have shaped the woman she'll eventually fully realise, the four novels of the Katana Series have shaped where the set of five can reach. A medley of things of inspiration, all five books have had their fill of tears and happiness, and just about every other nuance of emotion in between. A historical mythology of cultured doctrines on the power of chi and shen, the revitalisation of the epic ways they were brought into a contemporary ballad of coming to age and fates on the path to destiny, has made the series one of the hardest I've ever faced having to put down. Whether that sentiment arose between pages and chapters because you just can't keep that next diary event at bay any longer, or between the completed books as you wait impatiently for the next addition, there's few series in my library that I'd recommend to the full breadth of people who read, genre specific or not. They truly are the type of books that anyone can and should read. Like predecessors of the same ilk it doesn't matter what you prefer to read, this series will bare its place resoundingly in any library.
The saddest thing about the mind shattering experiences of great sagas is that their cessation is often commensurate in a dichotomy between the amount of joy that comes from experiencing them, leading to disappointment that they've finished. The more enjoyable they are, the sadder you are that they've finished. This isn't an inherently negative or critical aspect of their existence, though, its simply the byproduct of our desire to go on experiencing the things we love. To think of this as criticism is like suggesting that one who has led a joyful life, should wish they were never born to begin with once their life reaches the end. The occurrence of enjoyment predilects disappointment once the occurrence comes to an end. In many ways its indicative of the statement that it is better to have loved and lost than it is to never have loved at all.
So too is it that if you want for the greatest sagas you'll likely read and encounter, then its necessary that they'll eventually stop. All you can hope for without cutting off your nose to spite your face, is that they'll reach an allotted conclusion that's at an acceptable stage for them to finish. The truly irksome cessations are when they come without having tied off loose ends and provided all the answers they can. There's something to be said for having all the pieces fit well together, because they let you move on after impacting you in such ways. The Kitana Series has been finished in a way that hasn't rushed through the conclusion or left you thinking 'but what about'. It has achieved for me, what might mean a little harsher in ratings of other books, a benchmark that's higher after having read it. It ticks all the boxes and then some more I've never added to the checklist of what's a great book to read.
The worst part of a book 5 is that a tremendous pentalogy is ending. From the first book, Ken Warner's The Scroll of the Five Masters, I knew I was reading an epic in the making. I've realized that my criticism in book 1 that was a bit of a stretch to see the main characters as middle-schoolers, was an error on my part. For whatever reason these kids are special. No spoilers here. This is the best of the series and (spoiler) a HEA ending as you can get with someone who lives forever.
"Katana Godan Nemesis" is the fifth and final book in the Katana series. As usual, Ken Warner has produced a well-crafted and enjoyable book which I very much recommend.
Summary In this book, Katana finally feels like a teenager. She is headstrong, sometimes short-sighted, stubborn, and fails to see the bigger picture. At times it was a bit frustrating, but she seemed to be a more "honest" character than the earlier books. Or perhaps it would be better to say she's an even more complete character.
As mentioned in the summary, Katana feels like a more complete teenager compared to the earlier books in the series. However, she retains the traits that make her an enjoyable character - her concern for others, her desire to do what's right, and her determination to improve and succeed. I appreciate the way that Katana has been developed further without losing site of the aspects of her character that we were shown previously. Mr. Warner has done a great job with that balancing act.
I enjoy the fact that, both in "Nemesis" and in the rest of the series, none of the supporting characters are off-limits for bad things happening. There's not a miracle waiting around the corner for every tough spot the characters find themselves in.
I did find it frustrating that the older, more experienced characters (ie. adults and leaders) made worse choices in "Nemesis". While that's not true across the board, the directions chosen certainly seemed to be less effective and made less sense. In a way, it seemed like they lost some of their knowledge and perspectives. I would have preferred to continue to see the wisdom among the leadership that they displayed previously, but that may just be me. Katana has always had strong guidance, whether or not she chose to follow it or agreed with it, and I felt that was not in evidence as much this time.
The pacing of the story is good, and I think the way that Katana feels more real helps to move the story. The quality of the writing matches the previous novels in the series as well. This is not a story that will feel half-baked, and you're not going to get frustrated at juvenile grammer or spelling mistakes. In other words, the writing is very solid.
As I have mentioned in my reviews of other books in the series, this is not a completely realistic book. This is more of a light read with wild martial arts skills, much in the vein of the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". If you enjoyed that movie, I think you'll enjoy this book (and the series).
If you are looking for a fun book that features martial arts, this is an excellent choice. While you could read just this book and not miss too much I don't think, you would get more out of starting at the beginning of the series. With that said, this is a good ending for the series. I very much enjoyed it and recommend it.
For disclosure, I received a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for posting an honest review.
love all in this book series !! Let me know what else you wrote l8nk and ill send my email
Worth the read. Would have liked less of the earthy language, but it was limited. 4.5 not possible, so going with 5.
Loved this series and totally enjoyed it, wish the author would add another few books to it, katana is a enjoyable character
I finished the last book in the series on April 10th 2017. While I enjoyed the series, I must ask, did you take notes from J.K. Rowling? Certain scenes were difficult to read because of what happened and to whom they happened to. You have done a fantastic job of capturing the reader's attention. I certainly couldn't put the books down. Many twists and turns but still a fantastic fantasy series. I absolutely loved this series and will recommend it to friends. Thank you for a wonderful adventure into the world of martial arts and fantasy.
As with life itself this final chapter tests the strength, courage, and resilience of all the characters. Loss, love, triumph, sadness, hope, growth, dispare, and self awareness continue to follow Katana. Will she be able to move forward? Will she be able to face her fears? Is she strong enough ? Will she figure out how to to defeat the enemy? A suspenseful and breathtaking end to a wonderful journey.
