I’m wondering if anyone knows any books that are similar to Shogun, but… less heavy? One of the reasons I never read the book is because I generally struggle keeping up with massive political stories with too many characters and difficult to remember names. When things take too long to build up, I sometimes stop reading midway. I understand, especially after watching the show, how great these stories can be and I would love to read something similar which is a little bit easier to read. I’d still like the story to take place in Japan.
Any recs are really appreciated!
