I will periodically introduce characters from the sequel to The Accidental Samurai in Fact or Fiction posts. The sequel is called The Shison (Shison is Japanese for descendants). The Shison will be book #2 in the Generations series, and I plan to have it completed in June. The Shison, like The Accidental Samurai is based on historical figures as well as fictional characters. Every week on Monday I will post the name of a character and readers can guess whether the character is an actual person who lived in the Tenth Century or a fictional character. Each Friday I will post the answer. This weeks character is from The Shison:
