MTV Geek is pleased to present an exclusive excerpt from the new science-fiction novel from Viz's Haikasoru imprint, "Good Luck, Yukikaze" by Chohei Kambayashi:
The alien JAM has been at war with humanity for over thirty years... or have they? Rei Fukai of the FAF's Special Air Force and his intelligent tactical reconnaissance fighter plane Yukikaze have seen endless battles, but after declaring "Humans are unnecessary now," and forcibly ejecting Fukai, Yukikaze is on its own. Is the target of the JAM's hostility really Earth's machines?
Author Kambayashi, whose reality-blurring work has been compared to that of Philip K. Dick, is best-known in Japan for the first novel in the series, "Yukikaze," of which "Good Luck, Yukikaze" is the sequel. An anime series based on "Yukikaze" by Gonzo and Bandai Visual was released in 2002.
