Deva Zan

"In Japanese Buddhism, twelve generals-the Juni Jinsho-stood guard over the cosmos at the points of the zodiac. But now they have vanished, and nothing stands between us and the forces of darkness, except Deva Zan, a samurai without a memory. To restore order to existence, he must marshal not only his own fighting skill, but find companions that can cross the boundaries of time and space-to join him in a battle that will stretch from the fields of ancient Japan, to the streets of modern New York City-and to dimensions beyond human comprehension! Dark Horse has the honor to publish Deva Zan, Yoshitaka Amano's first fantasy novel as an author as well as an illustrator! After an epic ten years of planning, Amano has made Deva Zan his personal expression of the legends of Asia for his Western readership."
