It's that day! The first day of September, also known as the day that Izanami's Choice goes on sale.
To celebrate, we recorded an audio version of the first chapter (linked below) and asked the author about how this alternate history, father-daughter team up of samurai and robot action came about:
Adam, was there anything in particular that inspired you to write IC?
For a story that mixes so many things, it's probably not surprising that I had a lot of inspirations. I consciously pulled inspiration from sources like Bladerunner, Sherlock Holmes, The Last Samurai (without the white savior trope), and I, Robot. I also drew inspiration from the anime series Samurai Champloo, which is a fun, alternate Edo Era Japan that is mostly historically accurate, except for occasional anachronistic influences, like hip-hop and breaking. Champloo is a lot more tongue-in-cheek about its anachronisms than my own story, but it did get me thinking differently about history.
Izanami's Choice is available at Broken Eye Books, Amazon, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, and IndieBound.
