Samurai Girl 6: The Book of the Heart

This is the final book in the series. Heaven has gone back to Japan, but the situation there is just as perilous as it was in the U.S. Everywhere she turns people have betrayed her and want to use her for their own purposes, or just outright want to kill her.

The solution seems to be return to the U.S. via a route that could get her and Hiro, who has now joined her, shot. Once in the U.S., of course, things again are bad and once again there are ninjas everywhere attacking. Heaven has gone in search of her mother and finds her, and the ninjas find them.

This is after a two major characters in the series die.

The ending is sort of a non-ending, and here is my major criticism of this volume (other than it just is more of the same all the time.) Where Heaven is going to go is supposedly safe, but everywhere else she has gone the ninjas have found her and there's really not much reason to assume they won't again. It's like believing that the enemy all of a sudden won't find out something they have managed to find out every single other time.

Basically, I'm glad the series is over. It went on too long and got way too repetitive.
