‘Godzilla Minus One’ Novelization by Director Takashi Yamazaki Published Today

The Godzilla Minus One novelization is available in English today in paperback and e-book via Seven Seas Entertainment.

It’s authored by the film’s writer-director, Takashi Yamazaki, who delves deeper into the story over the course of 196 pages.

After failing to carry out his suicide mission, disgraced kamikaze pilot Koichi Shikishima returns to ravaged postwar Japan to find his parents dead and country destroyed. Having lost both his honor and his family, he must try to slowly rebuild alongside the thousands orphaned by the Tokyo air raids—including a woman named Noriko and her adopted child, whom he invites into the ramshackle remains of his home.

But as these struggling survivors begin to reclaim a semblance of stability, a new and unprecedented threat appears on the horizon—a rampaging, colossal creature from the deep that their defeated nation cannot defend against. With no hope of aid from the occupying forces, can a ragtag militia of misfits band together to thwart this titanic terror?

Toho’s most successful Godzilla film, Godzilla Minus One grossed over $113 million worldwide and won an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. Yamazaki is currently writing a follow-up.
