Table of ContentsReviews<br> Funny, scary and informative, Yokai Attack! is a must-have, must-read for anyone interested in Asian culture and MONSTERS. What a combo! It will have a place of honor on my shelf between Chariots of the Gods and The Zombie Survival Guide. Great stuff. Great fun! Steve Niles, Creator, 30 Days ofNight<br><p><br> Yokai Attack is a field guide, of sorts, for the unwary traveler intent on avoiding these beasties or at least identifying them before they pounce. Sci-Fi Magazine<br><br><p><br> -The guide is a compendium of the wildest, weirdest, and nastiest creatures that Japan has to offer. [...] Written in lively and accessible prose, Yokai Attack! is an easy read. This is no scholarly treatise on Yokai folklore, nor does it try to be. Beautiful illustrations based on the sometimes highly variable folkloric descriptions grace every entry, along with photos of various Yokai paraphernalia including toys, and copies of images from 18th century Japanese folkloric texts. [...] Overall, Yokai Attack! is an entertaining and informative read.- --Japan Powered blog Author InformationMatt Alt and Hiroko Yoda are a husband and wife team who run a Tokyo-based translation company that specializes in producing the English versions of Japanese video games, comic books, and literature.
