Lian Hearn
16 years of peace and prosperity have passed since Lord Otori Takeo united the Three Countries. Takeo and his beloved consort, Kaede, have three daughters and a happy family life. Their success has attracted the attention of the distant Emperor and his general, the warlord Saga Hideki, who covet the wealth of the Countries. Meanwhile, the violent acts and betrayals of the past will not lie buried, and other secrets will not stay hidden. Everything that Takeo and Kaede have achieved is threatened.
In full ninja versus samurai fashion, Hearn delivers a kinetic, heartbreaking, and uplifting resolution to a thoroughly gripping saga.

The book was billed as a trilogy. I devoured all three. At the end, I wondered - what happened? There is so much more that I need to know. This can't be the end of the trilogy.
With this final book, I am content. I know how everything worked out.
The political intrigues, the status and use of the "Ninja", the introduction of the foreigners in Japan all served as excellent background for the characters to develop.
It is a 4 book trilogy, but well worth the time and expense. You will not be disappointed.
Otori Clan - an excellent story

Where does Harsh Cry of the Heron rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
To my surprise last book in the Tales of the Otori wasn't just obligatory read to finalize series - it made new planes of story lines and at some point I even suspected this might be new beginning until the end of book made quiet coda to the lives of main characters and their heritage.What other book might you compare Harsh Cry of the Heron to and why?
Comparing to other tales of Otori this one brings up more about spiritual believes of medieval Japan and mostly it reminded me Rashomon by Akutagawa Ryunosuke.Which character – as performed by Julia Fletcher and Henri Lubatti – was your favorite?
MayaWas there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Last chapter, - it was very sincere, sad, powerful and logical at the same time.Any additional comments?
Will be reading this one in paper - just listening was not enough. I think all books of those series will end up on my bookshelf (or kindle-shelf) enetualy;).Masterpiece

Superb conclusion to the Tales of the Otori

Part of me wishes I never listened to part 4 as it was heartbreaking seeing beloved characters fall. Part of me enjoyed the bittersweet conclusion to this saga.
The story in book four did not seem as dynamic as the previous trilogy. Both hero's and villians did not seem to follow the thematic conclusions I had hoped for.
Tragic sequel to a near perfect trilogy
