Peaks Island Press has an impressive catalog!
Author Eugene Woodbury has produced two young adult novels set in Japan. Fox & Wolf
has a contemporary setting and tackles the world of shape-shifting. Not
only is this novel an excellent way to learn about Japanese werewolves
and werefoxes, it is also a great education on the customs of Japanese
high schools!
Serpent of Time, Eugene's second YA novel, details time-traveling between the Nanboku Period in Japan--specifically the time of the Oei Rebellion--and contemporary Osaka, including famous Mount Koya. More specifically, Serpent of Time follows the trials of a princess on the run alongside the adventures of her helpers and chasers.
Most recently, Eugene has created translations of novels from Ranpo Edogawa's Boy Detective Club series.
