JACK FLETCHER FACES HIS TOUGHEST CHALLENGE YET.

But Jack is the first and only samurai to do so. Now he must enlist other warriors to the villagers' aid before the bandits return to steal their harvest. No easy task when the reward is so little and he is a foreigner. If only he had his friends to call on...
