One Man, Three Yokai, and a Dragon on a Road Trip to Hell! The boys are back, in 400-page hardcovers that are as pretty and badass as they are.

His superiors send him on a journey far to the west to discover why this is happening and how to stop it. His companions are three yokai with human souls. But this is no day trip -- the four will encounter many discoveries and horrors on the way, and on the road, Genjo will wonder. . . can he really trust his supernatural companions?
