On the battlefield littered with corpses, two young fighters crawl to safety; her dream of a glorious one Becoming a samurai has its first problem experience exercise. Nevertheless, one will follow the renounced path of the sword, at the end of which there will be not only the perfect fighter, but also the perfect personality, while the other will end up on the path of worldly pleasures and can no longer escape mediocrity. The life path of Musashi and Matahachi, this unlikely couple, has many adventurous stages; Women and friends, wise advisors, but above all dangerous opponents and bitter enemies characterize her development and become their fate. Musashi, who actually lived in the 17th century and was the greatest samurai of his time, embodies the balanced combination of fighting skills, self-discipline and aesthetic sensitivity like no other. He is Parzival, El Cid, Don Quixote, Robin Hood and that Cane of kung fu films in one. His strategic wisdom is now secret reading among astute financiers and managers. The seven books of the novel, the Writings like Musashi's path from earth to fire to the light of perfection are captivating not only through the authentic, colorful description of life in ancient Japan, the landscape and the people, but also through the poetry of the images and the Language that is reminiscent of an artistic ink painting.
