Synopsis

On a trip to Japan in 1595, Dawk Faraday finds himself befriended by an unpredictable, possibly crazy mountain monk who swears he is being hunted by a demon called a tengu. His sister Hype, meanwhile, bonds with a female samurai who offers her training. These two worlds collide when encounters with demons begin to plague the entire castle town, drawing the Faradays into a multi-century mystery.

About the Authors

John Seven grew up in the 1970s, when science fiction movies and TV shows were cheap and fun. His favorites shows were The Starlost, Land of the Lost, and Return to the Planet of the Apes, and he loved time travel most of all. John collaborated with his wife, illustrator Jana Christy, on the comic book Very Vicky and a number of children's books, including the multi-award-winning The Ocean Story, A Year With Friends, A Rule Is To Break: A Child's Guide To Anarchy, and Happy Punks 1-2-3. John was born in Savannah, GA and currently lives in North Adams, MA with his wife and their twin sons, Harry and Hugo, where they all watch a lot of Doctor Who and Lost together.

Stephanie Hans was born in a very small village in the northern part of France. She considers herself lucky to have grown up in a house full of all kinds of books (including comic books!). Stephanie has loved illustrating books since she was young, and now works on young adult cover art and comic book illustrations, among other projects. Stephanie lives in Berlin, Germany.
