  Guardians of the Far Frontier is another addition to KUMAs growing Boys Love list and KUMA (Denpa) are to be applauded for bringing such a wide range of titles and mangaka to the West. I imagine their best-selling titles are the definitely Mature-rated Harada ones such as YataMomo, Happy Crappy Life and The Song of Yoru and Asa alongside Wolf Pack by Billy Ballibaly (Fangs) and Qualia under the Snow by Kanna Kii (Seaside Stranger) although there are plenty of other good BL titles to choose from. The other plus with Kumas manga editions is the very lovely dust jackets (the one for Guardians of the Far Frontier is matte), good-quality paper and the addition of a colour image inside. The translation for KUMA is by Mike Wolfe and the lettering is by Andrea Donohue; both make this a good reading experience. This is definitely a title to read if you are looking for an engaging fantasy spiced with a dash of Boys Love! Read Full Review
