Klappentext:
Im Jahr 1869 fuhren vierzig Japaner vom Clan Aizu mit dem Dampfer »China« von Yokohama nach San Francisco – die ersten japanischen Auswanderer in die USA. Vor diesem historischen Hintergrund beginnt die Geschichte der zwei Samurai Hikosaburo und Manzo, die es als glücklose Goldsucher in die Rocky Mountains verschlägt.

Als die beiden eine Indianerin vor weißen Verfolgern retten, treffen sie auf Crazy Horse und seine Oglala. Der legendäre Häuptling ist fasziniert von den Kampftechniken der jungen Japaner und bittet sie, seinem Stamm Ju-jitsu beizubringen. Als neue Blutsbrüder, Sky Hawk und Winds Wolf, verteidigen sie nunmehr zusammen mit den Indianern das geheiligte Land der Black Hills gegen die heranrückenden Weißen.
Texto de presentación:
Hikozaburo y Manzo, dos samuráis exiliados a los Estados Unidos durante la Restauración Meiji (1868), viven de la caza en el territorio de los indios Crow. Un día, Hikozaburo ayuda a escapar a una india llamada Ciervo Saltarín, perseguida por unos cazarrecompensas que le siguen la pista. A punto de ser apresados, un grupo de guerreros oglala al mando de Caballo Loco les salva. El jefe indio, fascinado por la técnica de lucha de los dos samuráis, les invita a su campamento para enseñar jiu-jitsu a sus hombres. De este encuentro nacerá una profunda amistad. Convertidos en Halcón del Cielo y Lobo del Viento, los dos samuráis lucharán junto a los indios contra el hombre blanco que viene a conquistar el Oeste. La batalla por salvar el territorio sagrado de Black Hills será terrible, pero los valientes guerreros están decididos a luchar hasta el final. Con Sky Hawk, Jiro Taniguchi nos ofrece un western fascinante donde el bushido japonés y el código de honor indio se nutren de los mismos valores. Los paisajes del Far West americano y el estilo depurado del autor combinan de maravilla en la historia de una amistad improbable.
Testo della bandella:
In fuga da un mondo al tracollo, due samurai sbarcano in America. Ad attenderli la prateria sterminata e una cultura lontana, eppure così vicina a quella giapponese. Il talento di Jiro Taniguchi si presta ancora una volta alla ricostruzione della Frontiera, in un appassionante racconto a metà strada fra storia e fantasia, fra Balla coi lupi e L’ultimo samurai!
