THE K BOOK

Set against the closing years of the Sengoku period, the brutal unification of Japan, and the dawn of the oppressive Tokugawa Shogunate, THE K BOOK weaves narratives of art, craftmanship, and mythology.

“A god-touched woman, a rogue duellist, spirits and restless gods.”

THE K BOOK is a subversive historical fantasy where a wayward fox-spirit invents the provocative, gender-bending new art form. This act of creation sets her on a collision course with the nascent Tokugawa shogunate regime. The gods are restless. What sides will the local deities take?
