About this ebook

Yokai are the monsters, demons, and spirits of Japanese folklore, such as the shape-changing kitsune, the obakeneko demon cats, and the evil oni ogres. Usagi faces all these and more when a desperate woman begs for his help in finding her kidnapped daughter. Tracing the abducted girl deep into the forest, Usagi finds it haunted by creatures of Japanese legend and discovers that they are amassing for a great raid on the countryside! Fortunately, Usagi is joined by Sasuke the Demon Queller, who is also fighting to prevent the invasion, but things aren't always as they seem — especially when dealing with the supernatural!

* The rabbit ronin turned twenty-five, and Dark Horse celebrated with the first-ever Usagi Yojimbo original graphic novel, fully hand-painted, written, and lettered by creator Stan Sakai!

* Completely self-contained story.

* Usagi Yojimbo is a 2009 Eisner Award nominee for Best Continuing Series.

First ever, full color, original story!

This was the first Usagi book I have ever bought. It certainly did not disappoint! Anyone who likes martial arts and Japanese lore should definitely give this one a read. Whether you are a long time Usagi fan or just starting our, I'd say that this one is more than worth your time.

The stuff of dreams, as a westerner growing up watching "Seven Samurai" and "Shogun Assassin" and the like. Stan really puts you there and even backs it up with facts and history with great story lines and art. I promise you, you too will become a fan.
