About the Book

LIFE IN ANOTHER WORLD

Aspiring manga writer Shinichi Aizawa scores a hit with OTHERWORLD, a fantasy series set on distant a world peopled by various mythological species. When it is optioned for publication, he is teamed with fledgling artist Midori Kano. Midori isn't quite certain how she feels about Shinichi, who is determined to maintain emotional distance in order to avoid being hurt. On his part, Shinichi is suspicious of her motives and repeated attempts to bring him out of his shell. It's not, to say the least, exactly the definition of a perfect partnership. That's when a fox inexplicably appears and seeks amid a strange and titanic thunderstorm and changes Shinichi and Midori's lives forever.

Fleeing from the creature, the writer and artist are caught up in the storm and find themselves transported to a world which seems to mirror that of OTHERWORLD. Promptly mistaken for Ryu the Dragon Slayer, a legendary hero, a protesting and unwilling Shinichi is dispatched to preventing a powerful dragon from returning emerging from the hibernation imposed on it by Ryu to lay waste to the world. The Dragon Slayer had placed the creature in a state of deep hibernation some hundreds of years prior, so of course the task should be simplicity itself. Shinichi has his doubt, but nobody i listen to him.

Given a wildly inaccurate world map to guide them, Shinichi and Midori are promptly marched out of the kingdom under armed 'escort, ' and sent on their reluctant way. Of course, neither of them knows how to find the creature, much less deal with it. To make things even more dismal, they are saddled with a disgruntled court advisor who despises them and would rather be anywhere other than in the vast and threatening world that exists beyond the palace walls.

Along the way, they gain unexpected assistance from a lethargic basilisk, a motherly giant, an easygoing white tiger warrior, a dullahan possessing a disastrously limited knowledge of sorcery, a vain harpy whose dulcet tones could peel paint, and a small cyclops orphan who promptly adopts the artist, writer and artist as her new family. The quest becomes further complicated when both Midori and Ai, the female fox-turned-goblin, decide that Shinichi would make a perfect husband and begin a determined rivalry that threatens both the quest and his sanity.

Together, they encounter the undead, a party of desert marauders led by the giant's arch-rival, and distinctly unfriendly local flora and fauna. In addition, it quickly becomes clear that an unknown party is closely dogging their steps, using high-technology that should not exist on this world.

Includes definition of Isekai, teaser for MORABU: OTHERWORLD II, hardback cover art step pages, and writer's reference pictures of the central characters.
