Bokuto Uno (宇野朴人 Uno Bokuto) is a Japanese novelist specializing in Fantasy Light Novels who has been publishing books through Dengeki Bunko since 2010.
His debut work Kami To Dorei No Syntax is barely known outside of Japan; however, his later works beginning with Alderamin on the Sky have been more successful: both that series and his ongoing series Reign of the Seven Spellblades have been adapted into anime.
Works by Bokuto Uno with pages on this wiki:
- Alderamin on the Sky (2012-2018)
- Reign of the Seven Spellblades (2018-present)
Tropes common in Bokuto Uno's works:
- Crapsack World: Bokuto Uno writes dystopian fantasy literature targeted at young adults. Alderamin on the Sky is set in a declining empire ridden with political corruption where science is held back by religion, while Reign of the Seven Spellblades is set in a Magocracy where Muggles and sapient nonhumans are second-class citizens at best, and even the mages at the top are trapped in generational cycles of abuse and power struggles while the world periodically comes under attack by otherworldly gods.
