Book excerpt: A literary crime masterpiece that follows a Japanese pickpocket lost to the machinations of fate. Bleak and oozing existential dread, The Thief is simply unforgettable. The Thief is a seasoned pickpocket. Anonymous in his tailored suit, he weaves in and out of Tokyo crowds, stealing wallets from strangers so smoothly sometimes he doesn’t even remember the snatch. Most people are just a blur to him, nameless faces from whom he chooses his victims. He has no family, no friends, no connections.... But he does have a past, which finally catches up with him when Ishikawa, his first partner, reappears in his life, and offers him a job he can’t refuse. It’s an easy job: tie up an old rich man, steal the contents of the safe. No one gets hurt. Only the day after the job does he learn that the old man was a prominent politician, and that he was brutally killed after the robbery. And now the Thief is caught in a tangle even he might not be able to escape.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toshiko Tomura is a genius; the darling of the intelligentsia. A modern-day Michelangelo, this twenty year-old is already an established international stage actress, an up-and-coming architect, and the next recipient of the prestigious Akutagawa Prize as Japan's best new writer. Her actions make headlines in the papers, and inspire radio and television programming. And like many great talents, her troubled past is what motivates her to greatness. She has the amazing ability to emulate the talents of others. Toshiko is also the mastermind behind a series of murders. The ultimate mimic, she has plagiarized, blackmailed, stolen and replicated the works of scores of talents. And now as her star is rising within the world of the elites and powerful she has amassed a long list of enemies frustrated by the fact that she has built critical and financial acclaim for nothing more than copying others' work. Neglected as a child, she is challenging the concepts of gender inequality while unleashing her loneliness upon the world as she climbs the social ladder one body at a time. One of Osamu Tezuka's most wicked tales, The Book of Human Insects renders the 70's as a brutal and often polarizing bug-eat-bug world, where only those willing to sell their soul to the masses and become something less than human are capable of achieving their wildest dreams

Book excerpt: Storm fairy is a collection of three short stories by legendary manga-ka Osamu Tezuka. In Storm Fairy, an empress flees her burning castle to the nearby forest where she encounters a mischievous forest fairy who grants her wish, for a seemingly small price. It’s not until much later, after she’s given birth to her daughter Ruri, that the empress realizes the true weight of her deal with the fairy. Now the princess, with a face as ugly as sin, must live the rest of her life from behind a mask. When a malcontent discovers Princess Ruri's curse, he plots to overthrow the emperor by masquerading his own daughter as the princess, mask and all. Ruri also meets a lowly ronin and a beautiful fairy who make it their mission to return her to her rightful place on the throne. In “Kokeshi Detective Agency,” fearless little Pako goes around solving spooky mysteries while her dog Moll does his best to protect her. Oddly enough, Taro, Pako’s scaredy-cat older brother, is forced to accompany Pako on all these scary adventures. In “Pink Angel,” a sunset cloud named Pink spends an awfully lot of time on the surface helping those who are unhappy or in need. Unfortunately, the rainclouds Sir Brown and Sepia don’t take kindly to Pink’s meddling.
