Synopsis
A PREQUEL TO ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR FANTASY SERIES IN JAPAN, THE FOLLOW-UP TO KIZUMONOGATARI
A stand-alone prequel to the leading Monogatari series by the 33-year-old novelist whose first printings are now second only to Haruki Murakami's, this story about a blond female vampire on a 'tourist visit' to the country is being adapted into an animated feature for Japanese theatrical release in late 2015/early 2016.
High schooler Koyomi, encountering a dying vampire on his way home from purchasing age-restricted magazines, offers his blood and must face the three vampire hunters who have stolen his mistress's limbs.

About the Author
There are few authors in Japan who have reached the heights of success as Nishio Ishin (a.k.a. NISIOISIN). Born in 1981, Nishio dropped out of Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto, to pursue a career in story-telling. Since his debut in 2002 Nisio has penned more than 50 novels and a number of comics. He has quickly become one of Japan's top selling authors in recent memory with more than five million units sold since 2009. In 2014, as in 2012, he was the top selling author in Japan (outselling Haruki Murakami by more than half a million units). Nishio's works often cover themes of youth, but are framed in genres that are familiar to the masses. His works tend to mix mystery with comedy and touches or romance and/or the supernatural. He is a modern author in every sense, sometimes even experimenting with the Japanese language itself. Many of his works have been adapted into animated television series and films. His best known works are the Monogatari series and Katanagatari (both Kodansha).
