This action-filled adventure fantasy novel will take you through the magical and exotic world of Japan. Join Hikaru on her journey of coping with developing wings, and the responsibilities that come with it, complete with a J-rocker star best friend who claims to be from an ancient Samurai family, an alliance with the Yakuza, nail-biting ninja battles, a cloud-white barred spiral taifun like the Great Red Spot of Jupiter that endlessly circles the Tropic of Cancer and refuses to die, and a mystery man called The Trader who is working to bankrupt and bring about the demise of the entire nation of Japan. How much can a 16-year-old girl really do to make the world a better place? A lot, if she has wings, and friends to help!
