'Kojiki' by Keith Yatsuhashi Tour- This or That Interview with Keith & Giveaway


Keith Yatsuhashi was nice enough to answer some fun questions for us :) 


*Coffee or Tea?

Tea. I’m partial to Rooibos, though I only drink it when it’s cold outside. Of course, I’ll go for the hot chocolate before either one.

*Ebook or Paperback?

Ebook. As much as I love the feel of a book, the ebook is so convenient. Also, it’s harder to ‘flip’ through an ebook. I’m a flipper. Spoiled many a book that way :)

*Angels or Demons?

Angels.

*Book or Movie?

Book. Not too long ago, I would have answered ‘movie’. But books keep getting better and movies keep getting staler. It’s easier to find a good book than it is to find a good movie.

*Spring or Autumn?

Spring! I love to play golf. Autumn means golf season is almost over.

*Chocolate or Vanilla?

Chocolate. I do like vanilla ice cream, but mostly that’s with chocolate sauce.

*New Adult or Young Adult?

I don’t really have a preference, so long as the story’s good ;)

*Vampires or Werewolves?

I’m kinda tired of both.

*Batman or Superman?

Superman. Who wouldn’t want to be invincible :)

*Buffy or Veronica Mars?

Buffy--a thousand times Buffy. The show has a language all it’s own. So smart, so funny. So great.

*Sing or Dance? 

Dance. I just don’t have the voice for singing.

GHBT Blog Tour: Kojiki by Keith Yatsuhashi- Review & Giveaway


Kojiki

Published: April 19th, 2013 by Musa Publishing
Word Count: 109,000
Genre-YA

When eighteen-year-old Keiko Yamada’s father dies unexpectedly, he leaves behind a one way ticket to Japan, an unintelligible death poem about powerful Japanese spirits and their gigantic, beast-like Guardians, and the cryptic words: “Go to Japan in my place. Find the Gate. My camera will show you the way.”

Alone and afraid, Keiko travels to Tokyo, determined to fulfill her father’s dying wish. There, beneath glittering neon signs, her father’s death poem comes to life. Ancient spirits spring from the shadows. Chaos envelops the city, and as Keiko flees its burning streets, her guide, the beautiful Yui Akiko, makes a stunning confession--that she, Yui, is one of a handful of spirits left behind to defend the world against the most powerful among them: a once noble spirit now insane. 

The Earth itself is at stake, and as Keiko fights to save it, strange, dormant abilities stir within her. She suspects they are vital to her world’s survival, but to summon them, she must first unlock the mysteries within herself and a past shrouded in mystery.
