This is one of the best series of "sword and scorcery" series ever written.
They are about a samurai warrior traveling late-medieval Europe in search of a fabled city called Vedun. The novels are mostly set in the Carpathian mountains ...
.... absolutely blown away by the writing and characterization. Definitly the best sword and sorcery I have read since I discovered Howard many years ago. ... Incredible stuff!

Cast out from his Japanese homeland, Gonji, the Samurai warrior, journeyed across barbaric Europe in the quest of Vedun, the distant city in the loftiest peaks of the Carpathian Alps. Ceaslessly fighting the hated plague and hostile peasants, Gonji struggled to reach the mighty walls of majestic Vedun.
But demons and dragons, and mages and monsters pursued the warrior across the wintry plains and the jagged mountains. His swords flashing with fury, Gonji battles his foes and strengthened his will, determined to conquer his hardships, and fulfill his destiny!
