Sixteen-year-old Nicholas Cox is an outsider to the competitive fencing world. Filled with raw talent but lacking proper training, he signs up for a competition that puts him head-to-head with fencing prodigy Seiji Katayama...and on the road to the elite all-boys school Kings Row. A chance at a real team and a place to belong awaits him—if he can make the cut!

This book is too short to form concrete opinions about the characters but Nick looks like a hardworking boy who has strived very hard to learn fencing and join King's Row school. Seiji is a champion and his success definitely seems to have made him into an arrogant douche. Their first match cements their rivalry and the ending sets up for some explosive moments for the upcoming books.
I really loved the art style. It's very minimalistic but captures the essence of the story beautifully. I also love the direction the story seems to be going. The cast is wonderfully diverse and I wouldn't have expected anything else from one of my most recent favorite authors. Very excited to jump into the next book.

I loved this story! I finished it so fast that I reread it immediately after finishing it. The art style is amazing and I'm already in love with Nicholas. Can't wait to see where the story's headed after that ending.
