Shadow of Light: Kenji and the Sword of Gathering Clouds

By G.D. Wilson

Something is stirring in the rainforest.

Strange flashes of power. Creatures that shouldn't exist.

When Ken is pulled into a hidden world where ancient Japanese mythology collides with modern life, the mystery builds fast and the danger rises even faster. The powers awakening around him-and within him-are real, unpredictable, and far bigger than he imagined.

Blending cinematic intensity with emotional depth, Shadow of Light weaves Japanese lore and philosophy into an immersive coming-of-age adventure. It balances action with heart, exploring friendship, responsibility, identity, and the quiet tensions between children and parents.

Perfect for fans of anime, manga, and fantasy where characters discover abilities they don't fully understand, Shadow of Light is imaginative, fast-paced, and impossible to put down-a story that lingers long after the final page.

G. D. Wilson was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, and spent two influential years living in Tokyo, Japan-an experience that shapes much of his storytelling. A professional software engineer as well as an author, he lives in Melbourne with his wife and two sons, who inspire many of his characters and ideas. Outside of writing, he enjoys snowboarding, cooking, and growing his own food.
