The Great Yokai Encyclopedia


Good friend Richard Freeman is about to release his brand new book of Japanese monsters, entitled 'The Great Yokai Encyclopedia', published by CFZ Press. It is without doubt one of the most eagerly awaited books in many, many years, and is a great companion to my 2007 'Monster! The A-Z Of Zooform Phenomena'.

At 416 pages it's the first, last, and only word on Japan's weird menagerie of bizarre creatures, surreal humanoids, leathery dragons, and folkloric entities.

The book will be available from Amazon and all good book stores.
