Review title: Smells like Ninja
Product review: I read this book when I was 14, and a decade later I have a lot of perspective as a martial artist who has used books for self-training. I used to be a big fan of Ashida Kim books until one day I realized that he basically ends each book trying to teach you a ninja-fied version of "magic." There are many interesting techniques for training and expanding your awareness of others trying to influence you in this book. For a good price or at the library this is a decent read, but I've read better, such asMind Manipulation: Ancient and Modern Ninja Techniques. I'd give this guy's work a higher rating if not for the fact he tries to teach you the Kuji Kiri, details how to make contact with a familiar spirit (as in a spirit that will guide you and even protect you, like an imaginary friend but more). One may say its just nerdy drivel, and others will say its a demonic toybox. I say either way he tossed his credibility out the window.
