Runoff tells the story of a Range, a small town in the shadow
of Mount Rainier, as mysterious events begin to occur that
threaten the lives of anyone and everyone living there. Ghosts
are running cars off the roads, wolves are roaming the streets,
and soon enough deformed and savaged bodies turn up left
and right. Runoff is dark, stylish, funny, visceral, and more
than anything else: Unpredictable. Yes, before the narrative
reaches its (surprisingly emotional) conclusion there will be
force-fields, ghosts, werewolves, tesseracts, talking animals,
vampires, mummies, a dissertation on the fourth dimension, government conspiracies, comic strips, and, naturally, a
municipal election. Recommended to fans of Twin Peaks, Hell
Boy, Black Hole, and the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen,
and enthusiastically endorsed by Guillermo Del Toro.

Albert Einstein said his first ideas about relativity came from
looking in the mirror as a teenager and wondering what it

that journey… Journey by Starlight follows Albert Einstein 2.0,
an artificial intelligence (AI) recreation of Albert Einstein, and
his traveling companion through space and time as they travel on a beam of light from a star over 3,000 light years away
to Earth. Along the way, Einstein explains the science behind
everything from the origins of the universe to the meaning
of life, relativity, black holes, quantum mechanics (for beginners), climate change, evolution vs. intelligent design, and
how the brain works, all delivered in fun, easy-to-understand,
bite-sized chunks.

Message from the president:
An end to the persistence of war and the destruction of our environment
has not yet come and an unease felt for the future of the human race
exists in a great number of people.
It is not just a dream but a profound belief that our books will create an
opportunity for change in the hearts of everyone who reads them.
Our wish is not for the cultures of the world to be the same, but rather
that all cultures continue to exist individually in respect of each other.
We must awaken the sleeping peace that lies within the hearts of
mankind, regardless of our borders, religion, and skin color, in order to
connect us all.
To this end, no matter how little, because of our hope to contribute to
one world of peace, we named our company One Peace Books.
ONE WORLD, ONE LOVE, ONE PEACE.
CEO Ayumu Takahashi
