Great read, wanted more.
I read this because I'm hoping to run the parallelly named board game "the legend of five rings" and wanted to know more about the content. Musashi was already a character I knew pretty well, but I would not have expected him to know "nothingness" theory when writing about the void as many of the concepts are paralleled to European philosophies quite a bit. Overall took me way to long to read, and was a good read to go through. Worth the few bucks if your thing is philosophy, as I'd read this alongside socretes or Pluto any day.
