Three teenagers stand between a generation of peace and the creatures of myth seeking retribution for a dark past… In the shadow of the fallen Warlock Empire, twins Hidekazu and Masanori thrive on tales of their ancestors’ wyvern-slaying, of the wars preceding Seiryuu’s first era of peace in over a thousand years. But as the Dragon Goddess’ influence wanes, her greatest enemies return. The sorcerer who kidnaps women for a sinister purpose is only the first of many to arrive. The warrior arts previously forbidden to Hidekazu and Masanori won’t be enough to stop the wyverns, dragons, and mythical spirits rising in search of retribution. Nor will working with the future empress, their adopted sister, who steers Seiryuu's future from within the palace—and from the head of the battlefield. Their enemies seek justice not only for the crimes of the Goddess and the Warlock Empire, but also for the sins of Hidekazu and Masanori’s very own clan. Secrets run in their blood. Facing the tide of war means overcoming the Warlock Empire’s grim history… and the darkness within themselves. Jump into the world of Yumihari, a land filled with spirits, dragons, monsters, and stunning characters wielding elemental magic to save their homeland.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every dream requires sacrifice. Once a land blessed by dragons and gods, Seiryuu now relies on elite warriors capable of ripping seismic energy from the earth and shaping infernos for protection against a demonic infestation. Genshu Masanori, an ingenious engineer at only seventeen, could revolutionize the art of war—if his pacifist clan allowed him to train as a warrior. When Masanori and his twin brother, Hidekazu, witness a kidnapping at the Midsummer festival, Masanori has a chance to prove himself. But the sorcerer responsible defies nature and twists the elements into an unpredictable, terrible power. If Hidekazu—the scion of the Genshu clan, a master over four elements—can’t touch the sorcerer, how could Masanori? After the twins’ attempt to rescue a victim goes horribly wrong, Hidekazu and Masanori sign their lives away to the prestigious Tsukiko Academy. In doing so, they break their vows of filial piety, challenge their sibling bond, and ignore the future empress’ warnings about the headmaster and the dark secrets harboured within the school grounds… The sorcerer drags them into an ancient rivalry between gods. Yumihari teeters on the brink of war, and if the twins do nothing, Seiryuu won’t be in the middle—they will be the target. For fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender and Ursula K. LeGuin’s Earthsea Cycle, the world of Yumihari is fraught with monsters, mythology, and epic quests. BUY NOW and jump into the adventure today!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monsters, ghosts, fantastic beings, and supernatural phenomena of all sorts haunt the folklore and popular culture of Japan. Broadly labeled yokai, these creatures come in infinite shapes and sizes, from tengu mountain goblins and kappa water spirits to shape-shifting foxes and long-tongued ceiling-lickers. Currently popular in anime, manga, film, and computer games, many yokai originated in local legends, folktales, and regional ghost stories. Drawing on years of research in Japan, Michael Dylan Foster unpacks the history and cultural context of yokai, tracing their roots, interpreting their meanings, and introducing people who have hunted them through the ages. In this delightful and accessible narrative, readers will explore the roles played by these mysterious beings within Japanese culture and will also learn of their abundance and variety through detailed entries, some with original illustrations, on more than fifty individual creatures. The Book of Yokai provides a lively excursion into Japanese folklore and its ever-expanding influence on global popular culture. It also invites readers to examine how people create, transmit, and collect folklore, and how they make sense of the mysteries in the world around them. By exploring yokai as a concept, we can better understand broader processes of tradition, innovation, storytelling, and individual and communal creativity. Ê

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reynar the Woodsman lost everything when the Mists arrived. The plague killed his wife, two-thirds of the population, and trapped Reynar in his dead-end village. Those who didn’t succumb to the illness were marked with cryptic black tattoos called Pitch, thrusting them into a world permanently changed by the addition of levels, skills, and monsters. The easily flustered Glen is a butcher but has no business holding a sword. Back at home, John’s horde of siblings rely on his silent and dexterous talents for survival. Meanwhile the eccentric bushman, Samson, and his bizarre inventions freeze up in the face of danger. But Samson is determined to pursue his outlandish idea: become adventurers and unlock the mysteries of the Pitch. Without Rey, they’ll surely bumble themselves into an early grave. However, nothing is as it seems. Guided by her mysterious quest log, Guinevere—a power gamer from another world—is set on confronting the true source of the Mists, no matter who gets in her way. Time is running out. Will these unlikely heroes impede her, or help save their world? For fans of Dungeons and Dragons and Terry Pratchett, Lunar Insurrection is an experimental GameLit/LitRPG series featuring a twist on the Isekai genre and a dark sense of humour. Each novella-length installment builds on the larger story and world.

Masanori will do what he never thought possible: face his demons by travelling straight into the Nightmare. In a strange realm filled with dragons and spirits, he finds that some are out for his family’s blood and the secrets hidden within. War is coming. While Naoji urges Hidekazu to weaponize his dark gifts to turn the tide in their favour, Hidekazu is far more concerned with atoning for the Genshu clan’s atrocities. But what if the only way to absolve himself is to undo the Warlock Empire’s oldest crime, a violation committed by the Dragon Goddess herself? Aihi marches into their first battle with the confidence worthy of her new position as shōgun. What she doesn’t know is how deep the Goddess’ treachery runs… or how far her enemies will go to annihilate Aihi and all Seiryuu because of it. Genshu ancestry pushed Hidekazu and Masanori apart, but if they refuse to join Aihi on the battlefield, rogue magicians and legendary beasts descending from the sky will be the least of their worries. The Goddess must answer for her crimes… but the survivors can only answer in her place if they learn why the Warlock Empire fell. Jump into the world of Yumihari, a land filled with spirits, dragons, monsters, and stunning characters wielding elemental magic to save their homeland.

Striking a deal with the White Warlock will be the best or the worst decision Genshu Hidekazu has ever made. The warlock, Naoji, lives in his head, torturing Hidekazu from the inside out. But with his help, Hidekazu can grow strong enough to defeat Lacotl and destroy his immortal spirit. So long as he survives Naoji long enough to see his new plan through. And only if Aihi and Masanori don’t turn against Hidekazu—and each other—first. The Nightmare twists their memories and fears against them, giving the Kuro Hana and Lacotl free reign. Although imprisoned, his disturbing game continues unimpeded, bringing rise to the creatures of myth who want Seiryuu destroyed and the Dragon Goddess dead. They are already returning. One stalks Hidekazu from the depths of the Tsukiko Academy. Another awaits Masanori on the edge of his newfound haven. And the third waits inside the Nightmare in anticipation of Aihi’s next mistake. Jump into the world of Yumihari, a land filled with spirits, dragons, monsters, and stunning characters wielding elemental magic to save their homeland.

It’s a good thing Kevin’s boss has concocted a plan in which he and Lilian are essential. Kevin, Lilian, and Iris must travel to Los Angeles, California, and request the aid of Kuroneko, a member of the Four Saints.

Death is her dynasty. Ren Scarborough is no longer the girl who was chased out of England—she is the Goddess of Death ruling Japan’s underworld. But Reapers have recently been spotted in Japan, and it’s only a matter of time before Ivy, now Britain’s Death Goddess, comes to claim her revenge. Ren’s last hope is to appeal to the god of storms and seas, who can turn the tides to send Ivy’s ship away from Japan’s shores. But he’ll only help Ren if she finds a sword lost thousands of years ago—an impossible demand. Together with the moon god Tsukuyomi, Ren ventures across the country in a race against time. As her journey thrusts her in the middle of scheming gods and dangerous Yokai demons, Ren will have to learn who she can truly trust—and the fate of Japan hangs in the balance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water sprites, mountain goblins, shape-shifting animals, and the monsters known as yôkai have long haunted the Japanese cultural landscape. This history of the strange and mysterious in Japan seeks out these creatures in folklore, encyclopedias, literature, art, science, games, manga, magazines, and movies, exploring their meanings in the Japanese cultural imagination and offering an abundance of valuable and, until now, understudied material. Michael Dylan Foster tracks yôkai over three centuries, from their appearance in seventeenth-century natural histories to their starring role in twentieth-century popular media. Focusing on the intertwining of belief and commodification, fear and pleasure, horror and humor, he illuminates different conceptions of the "natural" and the "ordinary" and sheds light on broader social and historical paradigms—and ultimately on the construction of Japan as a nation.

Her contract is up for renewal, her mother is begging her to come back to Canada, and she is not sure where she belongs anymore.

Meanwhile, yokai feast and cavort around Osaka and Kyoto as the barrier between their world and the human world thins. Zaniel spends his nights walking the dream world and serving his demon “bodyguard,” Akki. But there is a new yokai on the scene, and it has gotten on Akki’s bad side. When Cybelle gets caught up in the supernatural clash, she has to figure out what is real and, more importantly, what she really wants ... before her life spirals out of control altogether.
