Der hier erstmals vollständig übersetzte und um die wichtigsten Essays ergänzte Almanach des Pioniers des ökologischen Denkens zählt zu den wirkmächtigsten Schriften über die Folgen des menschlichen Eingriffs in das komplexe Zusammenspiel der Wildnis. Als in den 30er-Jahren auch die bisher größte Dürre in den Great Plains nicht zu einem Umdenken in den USA führt, bricht Aldo Leopold nach Deutschland auf, um im Land seiner Vorfahren Anregungen für eine nachhaltige Forstwirtschaft zu bekommen. Begeistert von den dort entwickelten Ideen, wie der des »Dauerwalds«, versucht er nach seiner Rückkehr deren Umsetzung und beginnt mit der Renaturierung des Geländes rund um eine verlassene Farm mit ausgemergeltem Boden am Wisconsin River in Sand County. Seinen Aufzeichnungen über die sich von Monat zu Monat wandelnde Landschaft folgen kurze Prosatexte, die er während seiner über 40 Jahre währenden Forschungen in den Wäldern von Arizona, Oregon und Manitoba verfasst hatte. Seine heute noch drängenden philosophischen Fragen zum Naturschutz beschließen diese so eigenwillige wie prophetische Naturethik eines sich zeitlebens für die Erhaltung von Wildnisgebieten einsetzenden Visionärs. »Das bedeutendste Buch des 20. Jahrhunderts über Umwelt.« - Nature Study

Fast-paced and fun
Format: Kindle
Kiyoshi Harai is 16 and a recent graduate of the exorcist academy. He’s insanely powerful, but the problem is, he’s terrified of demons, thanks to a childhood trauma. He also has social anxiety, which only shows on the inside. On the outside, he looks cool and glowering. The first volume follows Kiyoshi from his first assignment to his first exorcism post in the boons, which he chooses because of his hero who works there. He gets over his fear of demons pretty fast, thanks to a fatherly demon he needs to banish who gives him encouragement. At his post, he enrolls to a high school and gets to work on his other anxieties. This was a fun and fast-paced start to a series. Many demons were banished, but the line between good and bad people was blurry, and Kiyoshi made some unlikely friends too. Art was good. I’d read more.

Loved it.
Format: Paperback
I’ve never read a Tezuka book I didn’t like and this was another masterpiece. Reminded me of George Orwell’s “Animal Farm”. Throughout the book I was trying to figure out how it was going to end. I had my theories, but the actual ending was perfect and it made me laugh.

Another Tezuka scifi classic
Format: Paperback
The story is a collection of short, loosely connected, stories concerning birds. Attaining higher intelligence, they begin fighting back against humanity for dominance and freedom. The first few chapters are very reminiscent of Hitchcock's "The Birds" as they, seemingly out of nowhere, start attacking people and whole cities. Eventually there is a way to communicate and negotiate with them and a truce is made, however it doesn't end there. Many generations pass and birds start gaining larger brains, talking, wearing clothes, etc. And humans devolve into feral cavemen a la, "Planet of the Apes". It is worth noting that there is a chapter featuring a black character who is drawn in a outdated, racist, charicature style. As in all Tezuka books, there's a disclaimer about things like this given the time they were written. I believe, however, that it's worth mentioning as some people feel differently about things like that and with a disclaimer you can now decide for yourself if you want to make your own judgement of the work. That one part aside, I think the work is some of his best. His ideas and artistry really are top notch. You can also plan to lookout for more manga reviews from me Mangamatt, whether here or on other platforms.

An under-appreciated Tezuka gem
Format: Paperback
Wonderfully strange book that toggles between absurd, hilarious, and poignant.

I Welcome Our New Bird Overlords
Format: Paperback
A wild ride that's basically "What if Rise of the Planet of the Apes happened with birds?!" I love it when Tezuka is just... out there, too weird to look away.
