Axed ending, what a shame. Started dragging 2/3's the way through the series. They introduced, what could of been an interesting plot point & some hidden super humans but never got around to bringing them into the story, they left as soon as they were introduced. Because they dragged the revenge too long & many characters made irrational decisions to boot. Author kept throwing all sorts of shit at the wall to see what would stick. It's probably best that the story ended here, the main revenge is completed even though there was a bigger plot planned from the start involving the origin of the sword.
The Lazy Lord Masters the Sword seems to have a similar starting premise but has far better execution in this aspect.
