Master of Kendo

Choose Your Own Adventure #176

by Richard Brightfield

You've been given a once-in-a-lifetime chance to go to Japan and study the ancient art of kendo, a form of fencing using bamboo sticks. When your martial arts master gives you the good news, he also lets you in on a secret. He has a mysterious sword that once belonged to a famous Japanese general named Hideyoshi. But he refuses to discuss the sword any further with you. Why does your sensei have this sword--and why does everybody else seem to want it? There's not much time to think though--Yakuza gangsters are chasing you down, and you'd better be ready to use your kendo skills!

I used to read this book when I was in High School and it was actually my second Role-Playing book. The story was very simple and the fighting actions were good. I learned some information about those Japanese cities and a few basic Japanese words. Plus, the pictures inside were good too!
