Mike Hanson Wrote:Will Yoshio's brother, or father, or Sensei, or best friend, be looking to blame Jack for Yoshio's death in "Legacies," and exact some revenge? And/or might Jack team up with just such a person?
Would be cool to combine elements of both "Black Wind" and "Legacies" in the next RJ novel.

Bluesman Mike Lindner Wrote:Good question, Mike. But how would the Kaze Group (if that was their name, I don't have the book here to check) know what happened to their guy?
Mike Hanson Wrote:They know he disappeared, while on a mission, to track down
a woman. A couple of scenarios spring to mind:
1) Further surveillance of said woman leads to recordings of
her making reference to "Jack," which through any number of
accidents (which often occur in fictional novels) fall into the
hands of the bad guys.
2) Yoshio's "reports" to his superiors (we can assume he made
more than what is shown in the book Legacies) give detailed
descriptions of Jack, as well as his single-name moniker.
And when Jack goes to Japan, the wrong person bumps into
the wrong piece of info, and connects this "jack" with the woman
being tracked by Yoshio (if there is one thing we see a LOT of
in Jack's adventures, it's "coincidence") and so on, and so forth,
etc.
Bluesman Mike Lindner Wrote:I'm sorry, Mike, I'm missing your point. You're thinking of the =next= Jack novel. I was considering only the evidence the Kaze Group had as far as LEGACIES. Is that it?
Mike Hanson Wrote:Well, vis a vis, res of theca, if we're going to treat LEGACIES
as pure canon, then, no. I do not remember any specific
reference to, or dialogue stated, which would alert the Kaze
Group to Jack's existence. I concede defeat.
