Agoura Hills author Peter H. Brothers recently wrote the first English printed book on the fantasy film “Godzilla, King of Monsters.” The book, “Mushroom Clouds and Mushroom Men,” took roughly 3 years to write and 2 years to get published.

Brothers fascination with Honda’s films dates back about 50 years to his childhood in Encino which he calls the golden age of sci-fyi. He since studied specific techniques used by Honda in order to write this novel. Brothers book details the humanity behind the Honda’s series. Brett Homenick, a colleague of Brothers from G-Fan magazine, explained that the novel helps readers truly understand Mr. Honda’s approach to Godzilla.

Homenick went on to say, “His films touched the lives of children all over the world, breaking down cultural barriers, bringing Japanese films into the homes of youngsters who otherwise would have had no interest in learning about Japan.”
