This book has some amazing illustrations in it. It has more text than pics, just a heads up, but the artwork it does have is worth it's weight in gold for the simple fact that it isn't the same Mizuki and Sekien illustrations that seem to get recycled throughout yokai publications. If you have done the initial yokai survey books (or have done our seminar) and are looking for more reference you will be as stoked on this book as I was when I found it.
