The Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide.

Story
After Englishman John Blackthorne is lost at sea, he awakens in a place few Europeans know of and even fewer have seen—Nippon. Thrust into the closed society that is seventeenth-century Japan, a land where the line between life and death is razor-thin, Blackthorne must negotiate not only a foreign people, with unknown customs and language, but also his own definitions of morality, truth, and freedom. As internal political strife and a clash of cultures lead to seemingly inevitable conflict, Blackthorne’s loyalty and strength of character are tested by both passion and loss.

Interesting Stories about Japanese Mythology
This book tapped into two things I love - the Japanese culture and Mythology! The stories were well-told and engaging. The narration was great, but some of the acting /voices used threw me off a bit. I recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn more about the exciting mythology of Japan! It was a fun listen!

It doesn’t matter if you're just dipping your toes into Japanese folklore for the first time or you're already familiar with it, this book brings all the magical tales to life in a way that’s super engaging.
What I love about it is how it explores everything from Shinto gods to mysterious Yōkai (those mischievous supernatural creatures) to heroic figures from Japan’s past. It’s like stepping into this mystical world where the line between myth and reality blurs, and it makes you feel like you're part of the adventure. Plus, it offers insights on how these ancient stories still shape modern Japan today—something I find fascinating.

It's more than just a history lesson; it’s a real journey into the heart of Japan’s cultural soul.
If you’ve ever felt the pull of Japan’s mysterious past, this book is the perfect way to explore it.

Mythology enthusiasts will enjoy
I really enjoy mythology, but I didn’t know much at all about Japanese mythology. I’ve read a lot of Greek and some Norse, but I didn’t really know what to expect from Japanese mythology. I can say that I am pleasantly surprised. This was a lot of fun and I planned to, listen to even more Japanese mythology.
