Tokyo Suckerpunch: A Billy Chaka Adventure ペーパーバック – 2000/11/7
Meet Billy Chaka, ace reporter for Cleveland's hottest-selling Asian teen magazine. He's brash, savvy, and prone to hair-trigger fits of karate. Billy's in Tokyo to cover the 19-and-Under Handicapped Martial Arts Championship and meet up with his friend Sato Migusion, the international renowned director of such cult film classics as Sex Up the Hotrod, Baby! But Sato never shows. Instead, the girl of Billy's dreams stumbles into a dive bar with tatooed Yakuza mobsters in hot pursuit. Then Billy will start brawls in swanky corporate sex clubs, be offered a golf club membership by a secret religious order, meet a dog trained in the ways of the Samurai, and race stolen motorcycles through the neon-choked streets of Tokyo. Packed with enough over-the-top fists action to make Jackie Chan cry, and featuring the most lovable uncool hero since Austin Powers, this hilarious send-up is a pop culture potpourri of sub-epic proportion.

It's the adventure of Billy Chaka, an American journalist working for Cleveland's best-selling Asian American zine. Covering a handicapped Olympics in Tokyo he finds himself thrown into a wild adventure involving beloved geisha girls, the yakuza, and other characters culled from the Japanese underworld.
There's plenty of action, as Billy usually resorts to fits of martial arts in many situations. And there's a lot of humor derived from Chaka's observations on Japan and the Japanese and especially on geisha girls, with whom he is obsessed. Also a bit of un-PC humor which is refreshing.
This is something a little bit different and a very playful novel. I'd recommend it as a quick and fun read. I'm sure Adamson has more Chaka adventures in the works. His writing is, for the most part, smooth and confident.
