Reviews
Emily's note:
When I worked in my former publishing company, I found Makime’s “Kyoto Blue Dragon Club” in Japanese magazine. It was such a strange story, so I decided to read it. It was an amazing and interesting reading experience. Since that time, I became his editor in Taiwan. He became the bestselling author in Japan and Taiwan until now. It will be the story that you never heard and will love it.
