7 posts | 7 read | 34 to read
Taichi Hiraga-Keaton, the son of a Japanese zoologist and a noble English woman, is an insurance investigator known for his successful and unorthodox methods of investigation. Educated in archaeology and a former member of the SAS, Master Keaton uses his knowledge and combat training to uncover buried secrets, thwart would-be villains, and pursue the truth Taichi Hiraga Keaton has a degree from the University of Oxfords masters programme in archaeology, but he abandoned further studies due to tight finances. Because combat didnt suit his nature, he left the SAS and is now an exceptional insurance investigator. Equipped with a strong body and a keen intellect, Keaton is about to solve the most difficult cases ever seen!

I‘ve got two other books in progress (Once Upon a River and The Joyful Vegan), but my main #weeklyforecast is to get a start on reading the Master Keaton manga series. I‘ve slowly been collecting volumes over the last couple of years and I finally got the last volume in December. It‘s high time to start reading and I‘m really looking forward to it! I‘ve heard such good things. 😃

I might be jumping the gun, it's only the second volume after all, but this is shaping up to be one of my favorite #manga series.

#junetunz day 24

Have had something of an #obsession as of late with mid-80s manga series. Got these all today in some #bookmail ; the back cover on one of the Keatons is uncomfortably flush with the pages, but otherwise, they're all in good condition.

Viz Media's Signature Editions of the Master Keaton series are absolutely stunning, and the #manga itself is more than worthy. In the classic globe-trotting adventure tradition with no small amount of Cold War intrigue (the series got its start in the late 80s and drew from historical & political events for its plots). A deft and wide-ranging sense of tone becomes especially apparent in this volume, exciting the reader for whatever comes next.

Taichi Hiraga Keaton is an insurance investigator, Oxford-educated archaeology lecturer and former member of the SAS. A pretty fun read. And also the first book I've come across with a sound effects glossary at the back!

Guillotine_Jane are those sheep on your mug? :) 8y
DiruVamp A sound effect glossary? I love it! 8y
pppooraikul I'm a huge fan of Urasawa Naoki! 😍 Highly suggest this one. 8y
