The latest edition of the RING series is set years after the original Sadako story. Now in a modern age of computers and the internet, the Sadako virus is revitilized and is potentially even more dangerous. Combining classic Japanese horror and modern themes, S is Koji Suzuki's powerful return to the J-Horror field!
Koji Suzuki was born in 1957 in Hamamatsu, southwest of Tokyo. He
attended Keio University where he majored in French. After
graduating he held numerous odd jobs, including a stint as a cram
school teacher. Also a self-described jock, he holds a first-class
yachting license and crossed the U.S., from Key West to Los
Angeles, on his motorcycle.
In 1990, Suzuki's first full-length work, Paradise won the Japanese
Fantasy Novel Award and launched his career as a fiction writer.
Ring, written with a baby on his lap, catapulted him to fame, and
the multi-million selling sequels Spiral and Loop cemented his
reputation as a world-class talent. Often called the "Stephen King
of Japan," Suzuki has played a crucial role in establishing
mainstream credentials for horror novels in his country. He is
based in Tokyo but loves to travel, often in the United States.
