The art in this book was pretty cool but the story sucked. I guess it was really written for a much younger reader. I found it boring and hard to follow. It may have been better if I had read the two volumes before this one, but I doubt it.

Not my favorite of the Kabuki series, probably because the art was done as a collaboration between several different artists. I prefer the books where David Mack does all the work.

The drawings are all top-notch, and the story, well, might be the weak link in the chain. Nonetheless, it was worth reading and again, I was surprised that the language worked as well as it did....a nice surprise.

Masks of the Noh showcases all of the Noh assassins and what makes each one special. It's a wonderful further exploration of the Noh universe.
