Title: Poorly Written and Unbelievable
Product review: I couldn't believe a major publisher actually published this book. The writing was bad, and I mean very bad. I could not finish the book. In addition to bad writing, "Cloud of Sparrows" suffers from a completely unbelievable plot. An American gunfighter in 19th Century Japan?! A mentally ill Japanese warlord? Improbable shifting alliances among samurai? I don't think so. The book was also too blood-thirsty. Why have the principal character wipe out a whole Japanese town, including women and children, to avenge one errant transgressor? This book was morally troubling trash. I would not recommend it to anyone.
