From the 1st Edition: "What's this?" you ask, "Another crudely fan produced book of reviews and boring synopses of Toho's Godzilla films?" Not quite, if you're a seasoned Godzilla fan like the author eager for new information on old classics, this is in fact the book for you. Not only does it cover Toho's dai kaiju eiga (even the rarely seenÂ Daigoro vs. Goliath), but for the first time in America offers reviews, trivia and detailed production information on all of Daiei's classic Gamera films, Toei'sÂ Legend of Dinosaurs and Monster Birds, and even the Shaw Brother'sÂ Mighty Peking ManÂ to name a few. Still think you already know it all about Japanese giant monster films? Did you know that King Seesar originally had horns and was named King Barugan? Or that Tadao Takashima refused to fly to Guam for on location filming forÂ Son of Godzilla? Or that Katsumi Nimiamoto, who played Titanosaurus inÂ Terror of Mechagodzilla, was also the acrobatic hero ofÂ Ultraman LeoÂ on TV? Don't know who Tadao Takashima or Katsumi Nimiamoto are, don't worry this book will tell you that too. If you think you've already read every good book on Japanese Giant Monsters think again.

Wait there's more!!!! This book also offer bonus entries on non-kaiju films likeÂ Battle in Outer Space, Toho's Hammer horror inspired "Bloodthirsty Trilogy" and TV'sÂ Agon the Atomic DragonÂ to name only a few.
