Modern Disciples: Volume 3 Ian Anderson

The country of Japan is devastated by a mysterious storm that literally leaves a dark cloud over the entire country. By day, the sun struggles to break through the cloud. By night, the country is overrun by nightmares. The lightning from the storm has damaged several power plants causing brown outs and people have a self-imposed curfew. Women are going missing or being murdered in public bathrooms. Men are found dead in the streets. The people of Japan are scared, and they should be. They are caught between the gods of Japan and an enemy that was banished many millennia ago. The one hope they have left is a group of six disciples and the queen of the gods who has gone absent. The third volume of the Modern Disciples saga finds our six heroes in Japan fighting spawn from Japanese mythology. They encounter tengu, kappas, goblins, and some characters from Japanese urban legends. They are not random encounters however. These creatures will be the obstacles on a mission to obtain artifacts that are essential to saving Japan. Not only do they encounter these creatures, but also the disciples will have their first encounter with an actual Titan that predates all other Titans. The story is told from yet a different disciple%u2019s point of view. You will see the team of disciples through her eyes as well as the catastrophe that threatens to end Japan for all time. This time the group will be tested when a disagreement between the disciples will cause a power struggle that could get the disciples killed.

Fans of manga, anime and Japanese culture are sure to enjoy this chapter in the disciples%u2019 cold war against the Titans.
