«Tengu» is the horror novel by Graham Masterton, published by France Loisirs in hardback in 1994 (391 pages, in French).
In Japanese mythology, the tengu is a malevolent entity that instils in its followers an almost superhuman wrathful strength and the ability to withstand any attack. At the end of the Second World War it becomes Japan's secret weapon; years later, the creature is unleashed again in a plot to avenge the destruction of Hiroshima.
The original work was published in 1983; the present French hardback edition appeared in 1994.
For fans of supernatural horror and revenge plots inspired by Japanese mythology.
