Inhaltsangabe

From the renowed author NISIOISIN, the creator of BAKEMONOGATARI, Zaregoto Series and KATANAGATARI.
Comes a new, innovative mystery series, Pretty Boy Detectives Club!

A mysterious organization is operating behind the scenes at Yubiwa Academy—the Pretty Boy Detective Club, comprised of President Manabu Sotoin, Vice President Nagahiro Sakiguchi, fearsome “bossman” and fearless gourmand Michiru Fukuroi, angelic track star Hyota Ashikaga, and artistic genius/business prodigy Sosaku Yubiwa. One morning, new recruit Mayumi Dojima happens to see someone drop a mind-boggling bundle, and the game is afoot! The ensuing investigation takes the Pretty Boys into the heart of enemy territory, but will they be able to see (or not see) it through to the end? The Pretty Boy series continues with this exciting new chapter, pitting a sublime aesthetic against the superlative scam!

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

There are few authors in Japan who have reached the heights of success as NisiOisin. Born in 1981, Nisio dropped out of Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto, to pursue a career in story-telling. Initially he had ambitions to be a comic artist, but when he realized his art was not up to snuff, he began to focus on his writing, eventually winning the 23rd Mephisto Prize, for Kubikiri Cycle (Del Rey) recognizing his talents as a mystery writer, at the age of 20. Since his debut in 2002 Nisio has penned more than 50 novels and a number of comics. And he has quickly become one of Japan's top selling author's in recent memory with more than 5 million units sold since 2009. In 2014, as in 2012, he was the top selling author in Japan (outselling Haruki Murakami by more than half a million units).

Nishio's works often cover themes of youth, but are framed in genres that are familiar to the masses. His works tend to mix mystery with comedy and touches or romance and/or the supernatural. He is a modern author in every sense, sometimes even experiementing with the Japanese language itself.

Many of his works have been adapted into animated television series and films. His best known works are the Monogatari series and Katanagatari.
