January in Japan 
I'm going to drop this off in the comments because it's not really a review, or a translation, more a random series of musings sparked by a couple of books I read. They are kind of relevant to everything here though, so I thought people might like a bit of a look – Why Japan is still considered The SFnal Country: http://fightstart.blogspot.jp/2014/01/very-short-introductions.html

Oh, my link doesn't look the same as everyone else's. Did I do something wrong? (Review will be up at 7.30am UK time on 22nd January.)
