Then disappear into the night in a cloud of smoke.These agents are even said to possess magical powers which include invisibility and walking on water, along with exhibiting such dazzling physical skills that they could easily rank as world class athletes in competitions such as track and field or else gymnastics.You even hear tongue-in-cheek statements in film such as 'Only a Ninja can kill another Ninja!'.That kind of hoopla might be fine for entertaining the younger audiences who love their super hero comic books, video games and Teenage Ninja Turtle flicks. But what about the adult crowd (like the author) who prefers a good dose of historical accuracy in their movies, books, etc. After all, you have probably heard the saying that 'truth is stranger than fiction.'The author became fascinated with ninjas back in the decade of the 1980’s when the Ninja craze in America had reached its peak. Ever since then I have set about consuming every book, article, and documentary I could feast my eyes upon.What he discovered about Ninjas was actually quite surprising. Their reputation has been highly dramatized by misconception and the popular media. Now I’d like to share with you what I’ve learned.In this book he will uncover many of the legends and myths surrounding ninjas while explaining who they really were and how they actually operated.DISCOVER THE SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT NINJAS! Available as an E-book or in Paperback.
