Musashi Book

Have just finished reading a book about Miyamoto Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa (translated). Anyone else read this??? I highly recommend it.

I really like that book. I spent a whole spring break reading it from beginning to end.

Of course the movie can't be completely accurate to a 500 page novel,but I just didn't like the way Akemi is in the movie, and Matahachi isn't heard of after part II. oh well...

Tanglangman,

I have to agree - It's a fantastic book. I spent a week stuck to it! :)
