The Sword of Kaigen
by M.L. Wang
Our rating
Spice: none. Darkness: very dark.
Misaki gave up her fighting life to marry into a warrior family on a remote peninsula. Then the empire she serves sends an invasion fleet. The first third is quiet family drama, and the payoff for sticking with it is brutal.
