His Sword Thirsts for Zombie Blood ...and Tonight it will Drink its Fill! In the misty days of Feudal Japan lies a dark legend of power-mad lords and subjugated peasants, of how the persecuted return from the dead to devour the living. Takuan Munenori has inherited the sword of his ancestors, the cursed blade of Muramasa, which is said to thirst for the blood of its enemies, and will drive the man who wields it insane if he does not feed it. Today, Takuan's blade will drink as it never has before. Today, the cursed sword of Muramasa will have its fill! An apocalyptic zombie story set in feudal Japan, like a feverish combination of Yojimbo and Night of the Living Dead.
