The Book of the Hakutaku: a Bestiary of Japanese Monsters

Created by The Book of the Hakutaku

The Book of the Hakutaku is an illustrated bestiary of yokai—the spirits, monsters, and ghosts from traditional Japanese folklore. It is the third volume of my yokai encyclopedia. It has over 100 yokai, each one translated from Japanese folklore and fully illustrated.

BackerKit is Live!
over 6 years ago – Mon, Nov 20, 2017 at 11:23:03 PM

Greetings backers!

By now you should have received an email from BackerKit letting you know that the pledge manager is live. If you didn't get the email, you can access the pledge manager here:

https://yokai.backerkit.com/

People who missed the Kickstarter but still want to pre-order the books can also join via that link.

If your order includes an ebook, you'll be able to get your download links for the first two books as soon as you complete your survey. The ebooks for The Book of the Hakutaku will be distributed when the book is completed, before the paperbacks and hardcovers ship.

You have plenty of time to select your add ons in Backerkit. The pledge manager will stay open until early 2018. When the book is completed and sent off to the printers, I will lock down the pledge manager, so all orders will have to be finished by then. I'll give you plenty of notice before that happens though!

Stay tuned for more yokai coming this week!
