A Japanese Vampire Born at the End of an Age
In feudal Japan a poor peasant & family man is turned to a vampire by mistake. He must come to grips with his new reality & help his family to survive. In the world of the Samurai he encounters creatures from Japanese mythology – some helpful, others deadly. The yakuza, the supernatural, and the unrelenting thirst for blood shape his destiny. Follow his adventures down through the centuries culminating with clashes in modern day Tokyo.
Shin, a Japanese Vampire is an unusual & compelling mixture of supernatural action-adventure and historical fiction that reveals the transformative and corrupting journey a simple man must take and how to lose, or regain, the essence of humanity.
As one review summarizes: “Shogun meets Steven King”.
