review:
'Escape from Yokai Land' by Charles Stross is a novella in the Laundry Files series that explains main character Bob Howard's absence from book 7.

Bob finds himself assigned to work with the Miyamoto Group in Tokyo to check wards to keep evil out. His hosts put him through a series of lower level tests fighting yokai. Bob puts up with this, then realizes there are bigger things afoot. Bob takes a trip to an amusement park and finds a gigantic yokai there, and now the fight is on.

I like this series and this side story was pretty fun. Bob is competent but always finds himself in situations that seem well out of his pay grade.
