Kensei: Rebirth of the Sword Saint

Loved the story and I look forward to listening to the next chapter of Kensei. :)

Fits the pattern, but lacks something

I think I enjoyed this up to when the protagonists moved locations. I don't know exactly what it was but after that I was waiting for it to be over. I'll not be continuing this series.
