	Book Reviews: Paradise by Koji Suzuki
		Suzuki is the author of Ring, Spiral, and Loop, otherwise known as The Ring Trilogy and the basis of the recent Japanese (and now American) movies of the same name.
		Suzuki seems to have an affinity for the trilogy: Paradise is divided into three sections, each one set in a different period of human history.
		Suzuki uses the string of improbable events (including an earthquake) that eventually unite them in the New Mexico desert to further illustrate the inexorable march of fate.

	Spiral by Koji Suzuki - an infinity plus review
		Suzuki has attempted to combine autopsy chic with the genres of medical/scientific thriller and supernatural horror, but succeeds only in producing a farrago of jaw-dropping banality.
		Koji Suzuki, the perpetrator of Spiral, is not a human being.
		Suzuki is not a human being but a computer program designed to mass produce fiction using all the ingredients of the best-seller, but which delivers merely a sad example of bad writing in every department.

	Metropolis - Big in Japan: Suzuki Koji
		This nightmarish sequence of events is the fulfillment of a dream for Suzuki, born in 1957 in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture, and a graduate of Keio University.
		A writer's lot is never an easy one, however: During the process of writing the novels, Suzuki stayed at home taking care of two children while his wife, a schoolteacher, became the main breadwinner.
		A house-husband is still a rare phenomenon in Japan, and in fact Suzuki wrote a non-fiction book on this subject, describing the social pitfalls the family faced.

	Dark Water - Suzuki Koji
		Fear is often a feeling, sensed rather than in reaction to something tangible, and Suzuki frequently exploits this as he tries to convey what his characters feel.
		Suzuki has a nice touch in evoking chilling scenes, the unseen that the characters think (but aren't entirely sure...) is there especially making for a sense of foreboding and menace.
		Japanese author Suzuki Koji is apparently an authority on childrearing.

	Koji Suzuki Dark Water Reviewed By Rick Kleffel
		Koji Suzuki may offer ghosts, revenants and haunts in 'Dark Water', but they're strictly on the surface.
		The true fear is evoked by those glimpses of the depths of human ugliness that he affords with such unpleasant clarity.
		Koji Suzuki displays a range in 'Dark Water' that may surprise readers of 'Ring' and 'Spiral'.

	VERTICAL (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The real sequel, an avidly awaited follow-up to the epoch-making Ring, is the acclaimed Spiral, in which Suzuki folds the story back on itself, reinterprets it, and adds levels of complexity, science, and horror.
		Koji Suzuki is based in Tokyo, but likes to travel.
		Suzuki is also a published and respected authority on childrearing.

	Koji Suzuki: Spiral ('Ring' series, Book 2) - Bøger (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		In Spiral, the sequel to Suzuki's Ring, we are to discover that the hoped for (if uncomfortable) resolution e promised at the end of Ring is not to come to pass.
		Koji Suzuku's "The Ring" chilled countless readers, with its story of a cursed videotape which kills whoever sees it.
		And as with "Ring," Suzuki gives you the feeling that the apocalypse is about to hit -- it seems that it's just a matter of time until Sadako wins.

	Koji Suzuki Ring Reviewed by Rick Kleffel
		In Suzuki's novel 'Ring' - the first of a trilogy - the protagonist is a cranky, overworked young father.
		But Suzuki is plowing a path that nobody else has traveled, as his 'Ring'-virus is born into an all-too vulnerable world.
		There are so many extremely clever riffs that never made it into either movie that readers aren't likely to notice how wide the road recently traveled is until they catch their breath and manage to look back.

	Spiral - Suzuki Koji
		"Suzuki blends the dispassionate, inquisitive, sometimes terrifying urban character-types to be found in Haruki Murakami's work with the plot mechanics of a Stephen King or Michael Crichton.
		The story is literally unbelievable, and Suzuki probably would have been better off acknowledging that and not trying so hard to make it sound scientifically plausible.
		Suzuki generally writes decently enough when he isn't focussed on recounting the details of the steps Ando is taking.

	Suzuki Kôji [1957 - ] @ EOFFTV (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Graduating from Keio University, Suzuki's promise as a writer was first hinted at when he won the annual Fantasy Novel Award in 1990 for Rakuen, but it wasn't until the release of Ringu that he enjoyed any real success.
		It's further popularity was ensured in 1998 when Hideo Nakata used the novel as the basis for a film which became an international cult hit, though the book [which is significantly different to the film] had already been adapted into a successful TV series in 1995.
		The success of the Ringu novel promted Suzuki to write several follow-ups: Rasen was released at the end of July 1995, Loop at the end of January 1998 and an anthology of three short stories set in the Ringu universe, The Birthday [comprising Sora ni ukabu hitsugi, Basudaai and Lemonheart] was published in February 1999.

	Koji Suzuki: Ring - Bøger (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Koji Suzuki could easily be considered the Stephen King of Japanese horror, with several movies (and remakes) of his bestseller novels -- particularly "Ring." Yes, that one.
		Suzuki's skill is in calmly, coolly describing horrific events in simple words.
		Perhaps that's a part of Suzuki's subtle cultural critiques in here, as well as Japanese supernatural beliefs -- nensha, for example, which is how Sadako created the lethal tape -- and the male and female roles in society.

	BBC - collective - koji suzuki interview
		But Koji Suzuki’s best known novel, The Ring, occupies a special place in the popular consciousness thanks to its great and subtle power to terrify.
		Now Suzuki is in London for the release of a new collection of short and frightening stories, Dark Water.
		In fact, says Suzuki, unlike most horror fiction, his is a literature of hope, meant to counter the fatalism prevalent in much of modern culture.

	Koji Suzuki, Japanese Horror Novelist
		Suzuki is also active in children's literature, writing his own stories and translating English works into Japanese.
		This is one face of J-horror, and it was Suzuki's spark that lit the J-horror boom.
		Suzuki is unimpressed with conventional horror flicks, with their hordes of evil spirits, splashes of blood, and jarring sound effects.

	Guardian Unlimited Books \| Review \| Review: Ring by Koji Suzuk
		Suzuki builds tension brilliantly early on: the details he accumulates on the page are banal in themselves, but the narrative voice lurches among them like a stalker-camera, or a malevolent spirit.
		This is especially well done in the opening scene, which, true to horror tradition, depicts the demise of a young woman; and at a moment when a simple pane of glass is considered as an animate object.
		In his film, Nakata took the concept and situation from Suzuki's novel and fashioned a fearsome sensory assault.

	Las Vegas Mercury: Books: Spiral by Koji Suzuki
		In the real world, true fear is generated less by masked sociopaths wielding axes or chainsaws or even switchblade fingernails than by dangerous anomalies that we can't understand--nasty, fatal occurrences that defy explanation.
		This is the tenet that Japanese author Koji Suzuki has cashed in on.
		Suzuki is called the Stephen King of his country, but that's not really accurate; King isn't nearly as adept at creating complex characters, explaining scientific principles or writing the kind of dialogue that might actually be spoken by humans.

		All characters and situations remain the property of their respective owners, namely Kadokawa Shoten, Asmik Ace Entertainment, Fuji TV, DreamWorks, and Suzuki Koji, the man behind the Ring.

	bookideas.com: Ring by Koji Suzuki
		Newspaper reporter Asakawa cannot help but notice the coincidence when two healthy young people die at exactly the same moment from apparently inexplicable heart seizures; after all, one of them is his 17 year old niece.
		Some readers will be familiar with Koji Suzuki’s novel through its film treatment The Ring, starring Naomi Watts, which was itself a remake of a Japanese film of the same story.
		The film diverges from the book in a number of ways, perhaps most notable of which — apart from some of the plot twists — is the nature of the central characters, who are much less attractive than we are accustomed to seeing in Hollywood films.

		Suzuki focuses on the thrills and the detective-like inquiry rather than the in-your-face horror and vividly gory description that might have detracted from the plot.
		Koji Suzuki gives the reader a slightly different and highly unique spin on the well-known films that should not be over-looked.
		With a more than workable knowledge of viruses Suzuki really deserves credit for keeping the reader fully engaged in jumping between the worlds of fact and fiction.

	Alibris: K Suzuki
		Based on the first novel by Suzuki, "Rasen" (The Ring) is the real thing, telling the story as Suzuki originally intended.
		The conclusion of Suzuki's Ring trilogy is a highly cerebral metaphysical thriller--one that once again turns the story inside out in a self-referential swirl not unlike the one that gives rise to consciousness itself.
		Through fascinating facts and fables, colorful cartoons, lively photographs, and dynamic illustrations, readers learn about their connection to the Earth, such as the human body, much like the Earth, is almost 70 percent water; how the sun is important to the life cycle; and much more.

		Suzuki's book and the Japanese movie were both very neat packages with the book being the neatest of all.
		It's difficult to blame Suzuki for this because, not being able to read Japanese, I don't know what's been lost in translation.
		And Suzuki's original, deeply creepy novel is a must-read.
