Beloved historical-romance shojo coming soon in English

NEW YORK, February 27- Tales of the Tendo Family ("Tendouke Monogatari") will have its much-anticipated English release from One Peace Books on April 9. Ken Saito, a mangaka best known for the heartwarming series The Name of the Flower alongside other popular shojo, is in superb form with realistic but charming characters that still push the right shojo buttons, all in a lush Meiji Period setting.

Having lost her beloved grandfather, a girl has one goal in her life: to die while saving another. And when she saves the beautiful young noble Hojo Ran, who is fleeing a marriage into the notoriously bloody Tendo family, she finds the perfect opportunity. She poses as Hojo Ran to allow real Ran to escape, while she enters the dark and twisted world of the Tendos and the arms of her new "fiancé," the stunningly handsome but shockingly cruel Masato. A first-ever translation by Matt Schley (Multi-Mind Mayhem, NHK, Netflix) brings the thrilling world of the Tendo family into English. The series will be released every 3-4 months and is available for pre-order on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
