![]() Can Kira save humankind? Or will the demon king succeed in bringing eternal darkness upon the world?. They include Shiro, a kitsune with boy-band looks who is more flirtatious than helpful, and O-bei, a regal demon courtier with reasons of her own for getting involved.As the confrontation with Shuten-doji draws nearer, the fate of Japan hangs in the balance. Not exactly skilled at fighting anything, much less the dead, Kira enlists the aid of seven powerful death gods to help her slay Shuten-doji. And she's also plagued with a secret: She can see yokai, the ghosts and demons that haunt the streets of Kyoto.But things accelerate from bad to worse when she learns that Shuten-doji, the demon king, will rise at the next blood moon to hunt down an ancient relic and bring the world to a catastrophic end. I hope you will pick up this book and spread the word about the fullness of this look at non-Western mythology and folklore. The writing is fantastic, the characters are unique and well-drawn, and the story arc is suspenseful and satisfying. ![]() ![]() She's bullied by the popular girls in school.
