Sci-fi author (and occasional Kotaku weekend custodian) Peter Tieryas has a new book in his United States of Japan series coming, and once again it’s all about...well, look, it’s all in the name: Mecha Samurai Empire.
We did an art showcase on the last book, which featured designs by John Liberto, but this one not only features more of John’s work, but also some models by Gen Igarashi, which in the Japanese edition of the book have been superimposed onto actual photos of Hokkaido streets.
Mecha Samurai Empire is out in September.
