New book out soon!



Big news!!
A new Manga book I provide all illustrations, The BOOK OF FIVE RINGS is now available for order from Diamond's September 2012 Previews catalogue.

"This manga version of Japanese classic The Book of Five Rings, the iconic book of confrontation and victory by the famed 17th-century duelist and undefeated samurai Miyamoto Musashi, reinvigorates the classic, making it more accessible and appealing to a wide audience. With atmospheric manga art by Chie Kutsuwada (Hagakure, Romeo and Juliet, etc) and a fluid script adaptation by Sean Michael Wilson (AX:alternative manga, A Christmas Carol, etc) the manga version works both as an engaging visual guide to Japanese swordsmanship and strategy, and as a view into Musashi's world. A fascinating book for manga fans, martial art fans and anyone who wants to apply the timeless principles of this text to their lives."
