According to Amazon’s description of the book, Uncanny is both professional memoir and horror manga analysis. “…[Ito] tells all and digs into dark recesses–reflections on influences from his childhood, thoughts on manga, next-level idea-generation techniques, character design, craftmanship, and more,” it reads. It also says that the book is “full of never-before-told insider anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stories.”
Ito has written about how he goes about creating the intense, frightening, unnerving, and often weird horror stories he’s known for, but it sounds like the author goes even further into his own inspirations and feelings in the book.
The hardcover book releases on October 15, and you can preorder at Amazon for $25.20, down from its list price of $28. The preorder is eligible for Amazon Prime delivery, and as with other Amazon preorders, it comes with a price guarantee–if the price drops before the book shifts, Amazon will automatically give you the lower price.
