リード・オア・ダイ

In Odaiba, Tokyo, a skyscraper stands empty of human life. Woo, a man from Hong Kong, arrives carrying a rare book known as "The Black Book of Fairy Tales." He meets a blond Englishman, who is accompanied by a bespectacled young Eurasian woman introduced as a consultant. When Woo checks her for weapons, he opens her coat to find it lined with pockets overflowing with novels, magazines, and newspapers.

This woman is Yomiko Readman, a paper master who can manipulate paper into deadly weapons. She works for the British Library's Special Operations Division, tasked with retrieving rare and dangerous books. Woo's arrival with the mysterious black book sets off a chain of events that draws Yomiko into a conflict involving secret societies and supernatural forces, all centered on the power of stories.
