Book Overview

The first full-length adventure from Gosho Aoyama, the legendary creator of Case Closed!

Yaiba Kurogane is an energetic young swordsman who's grown up in the jungle, training to be a samurai with his father, Kenjuro. When they return to Japan, chaos seems to follow wherever Yaiba goes! Destined to be a legendary hero, Yaiba must learn to be a true samurai and save the world!

Upon enrolling in school, Yaiba quickly crosses swords with his soon-to-be rival, Onimaru. When Onimaru is transformed into a demon by the cursed power of Fujinken, the Wind God's Sword, Yaiba embarks on a quest to Mount Tengu to find his own enchanted sword. But Yaiba lacks the skill and knowledge to use such a powerful weapon. If he can't control himself, it will control him!

About Gosho Aoyama

Gosho Aoyama made his debut in 1986 with Chotto Mattete (Wait a Minute), which won Shogakukan's prestigious Shinjin Comic Taisho (Newcomer's Award for Comics) and launched his career as a critically acclaimed, top-selling manga artist. In addition to Case Closed, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 2001, Aoyama created the popular manga Yaiba: Samurai Legend, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 1992. Aoyama's manga is greatly influenced by his boyhood love for mystery, adventure, and baseball, and he has cited the tales of Arsène Lupin and Sherlock Holmes, along with the samurai films of Akira Kurosawa, as some of his childhood favorites.
