Even after every thing they had been through and all the people they had lost, they still loved and completed each other.
I received a copy in exchange for an honest review
love the sarcastic word play between Sakai and Jiro and it is obvious that no one has ever said anything about Sakai having had a daughter and wife. And Sakai does not seem to know the first thing about how to make a person disinterested in someone. The more you put them off limits the more they will be interested.
Melanie definately was not woman enough for Jiro. she was not the right kind either to selfish.
i love this book from Sakai and Jiro's view. it is basicly the same story in places but intersperses it with their views.it tells the same story that Sanaa tells but adds what they think and see. i like the fact that his parents back him up about Sanaa and being friends or more with her and the fact that Sakai is finally seeing it also as a good thing.
it explains more about Yamada, the sick and dying Chief of Colonization, and what happens to him and the fact that he and Sakai went to school together. Myra his wife and Sakai know that
Minamoto planned the poisioning and death of her husband. she asks Sakai if he will pay and he says yes he will pay for what he did.
Shows so much more of how Jiro and Sanaa care for each other and their courtship in getting to know each other and their feelings for each other.
Miko's true coloprs come out here on page 291 when she states that Sanaa is her best friend but if it comes to a choice between her and his brother she will cut her off. Now i understand how she could be such a, insert nasty word here, to Sanaa in the last book and cut her off completely and treat her like trash. never really trusted Miko and now i know my instincts were right. and quite frankly i hope that Jiro and Sanaa never let his brother and Miko back into their lives. they are poisionous and toxic. when you have a bestest friend forever you corner your soon to bbe husband and find out why he doesn't like her and you don't turn on her and do her as she did in the last book. you don't blame her for people's deaths you take your own blame for them also not place it all on one person who is trying to protect everyone. I have always hated fair weather friends who couldn't accept their part of the blame for problems and got rid of them as fast as i could and never allowed them back into my life.
The ending was a total surprise. I would like to know why she was "kicked" out of the government but i am glad that Sanaa and Jiro have more time for each other and their sons. and though she wants the family to reunite i am of the feeling that they are better off without the drama and problems. Give them time to be together with their sons and let a mountain fall on the Black Ninjas so they never have to worry about them kidnapping the oldest boy.
Revealed is a true gift for fans of the Nogiku series. The Nogiku series is one of my favourite series and even though I think it ended in a good place, I also wished for more. And the author gives us that in Revealed. Revealed doesn't continue the story, but is a companion novel to the first book, although I would recommend to read it after book 4 as I think it works best that way. It's been a long time since I read the first book in this series and it was fun being able to revisit that time and see scenes from Jiro and Mark their point of view.
Companion novels told from the other point of view can be a bit of a hit or miss for me, but here it most definitely worked. We get both the point of view of Jiro (the love interest) and Mark (another important character in the series). It was great to see scenes we already know from another point of view, but there are also a lot of scenes where Sanaa isn't and thus we never know that happened as we only get Sanaa her point of view in the first 4 books. I felt that revealed added a lot of details, explained the behaviour of both Jiro and Mark more and gave us a look what was happening at that time where Sanaa wasn't aware of. So it's not just showing us another perspective, it also adds a lot to the story. It doesn't follow the whole first book till the end, but end somewhere else instead, which I think was the right place to end this story.
I loved reading this book and it was so wonderful to be back in the Nogiku world for a little bit. I easily lots track of time while reading this and had a hard time putting this book down. The book is also bittersweet and made me feel emotional as we know what will happen to these characters later on in the series and gah it was so hard to read certain scenes knowing what would happen next. The only small complaint I have is the ending, while I just said I liked the ending, after the ending scene we skip forth a few years and then it takes place after book 4 and it just felt a bit jarring to go form one moment to years later. I did like how that scene made sure the book wrapped up after book 4, the time skip was a bit jarring as you basically have to remember 3 whole books in that time skip.
Jiro and Mark are both two of my favourite characters in this series and I really liked seeing their point of view. I felt like I learned so much more about these characters. I never realized how much mark cared about Sanaa and how busy and conflicted he was at that time. With Jiro I had a hard time getting into his point of view at first. Jiro is so angry all the time and so different from the guy we get to know from Sanaa her point of view. But slowly that changes and I started to really like reading his point of view. And it wasn't until the end of the book I realized how well it was written as then I realized that Jiro had changed. Sanaa changed him and his life in such a big way, while at the same time it was subtle enough that I didn't realize it until the end of the book. It was really powerful to realize that and see how much Sanaa means to him and how much her presence in his life changed him. Gah these two are so great together and seeing their romance begin, but now from Jiro hsi point of view was so awesome and made me like them even more. Jiro and Sanaa are one of my favourite fictional couples as they are so perfect for each other. They are honest and open with each other, share things with each other they hide from the rest and they are such a great couple, begin there for the other and so genuinely caring.
To summarize: Revealed is a gift to all the fan of the Nogiku series, it gives us a chance to revisit the events from book 1 Removed and at the same time gives us another point of view and knowledge of what was going on around Sanaa before she knew something was going on. I would recommend to read this book after book 4 as it has the most impact that way and won't spoil anything. This book is awesome and I loved every second of it, but it's also so bittersweet knowing where these characters end up. It was hard to read it at times, knowing they change so much and so much happens to them. I loved learning more about both Jiro and Mark. I feel like we got to see a side of Mark we don't see often in the first 4 books. And seeing Jiro his point of view makes me realize even more how perfect he is for Sanaa and how good she was for him. I am so glad I got the chance to visit the Nogiku world again in this book and it's a great addition to this series.
This fascinating idea to bring in characters at a different point and really dig into the secondary story of who are now the primary characters.
I hope I explained this in a understandable manner. I'll just leave you with the fact that I read a lot and this is the best fiction I've run across in some time. Hope you love it too.

Shorter than I liked but I’m glad to hear there may be more in this universe.
