Coming this May, we’ll be publishing Loups-Garous, a werewolf-in-Tokyo murder mystery by Natsuhiko Kyogoku. The book’s editor (Saint Nick Mamatas) calls it a dystopian science fiction novel with a twist of thriller. As a fan of such things, I can’t wait until May when the book is finally sitting on my shelf.
Until then we can all cool our jets with a newly translated novel by Kyogoku called The Summer of the Ubume. This supernatural tale is the first in a series of nine novels featuring an exorcist who doesn’t believe in ghosts. Added bonus: the novel was translated into English by Alex Smith, the man responsible for a handful of Haikasoru titles, including Brave Story, and All You Need is KILL.
