Theo, if you want to read some good Japanese-based Fantasy, read the Tomoe
Gozen saga by Jessica Amanda Salmonson. Alternate Japan (Naipon) in which
the various Shinto deities and other entities are alive and active. Good
swordplay (accurate Japanese styles!), and as if that weren't enough, a
woman samurai protagonist. Good stuff. Nice interior art, too.
Titles: (not necessarily in order -- haven't read them in a while)
Tomoe Gozen
The Golden Naginata
The Thousand Shrine Warrior
