Avoid being seen, avoid capture, avoid being held' - Ninja Shadowhand teaches readers about the crux of this credo - the art of 'avoidance'. Lung and Prowant, both martial arts experts, provide an in-depth look at ninja shadow masters, stealth, secrecy and subterfuge. A brief history of the ninja expands into the nine training halls of jiujutsu, including specialised combat, unarmed combat, combat with wood, espionage and mysticism. From there the book examines manipulating human sight and the quest for invisibility. The second half teaches how to put it all to practice!'
