Yep, these are great
Read Shogun when I was about 12, and reread a few years later and still wasn't particularly impressed. Yoshikawa is in a different league altogether IMHO.
And Yasushi Inoue's The Samurai Banner of Furin Kazan is also on Kindle now, it's a shame more of his books aren't on Kindle.
Slightly OT (apologies to OP) but does Yodo-Dono nikki by Inoue even exist in English translation? I read it in French (le chateau de Yodo) and have been trying to find it in English for a friend but have so far failed.
