Global Warming Thriller from Le French Book Gets Title and Cover - Press Release - Digital Journal
Le French Book's team wanted the cover to give a feeling of impending disaster, with a French touch, and chose to include the image of a tupilaq. Readers learn in the novel that it "is a monster made up of bits of dead humans and animals. Certain shamans collect bones and frozen flesh scattered in the snow. They then mark out a magical place that communes with dark forces and dance around debris, singing ritual words to infuse it with life...Naturally, this is just a legend.” The novel's hero receives a statue of one as a welcome gift when he arrives in Greenland.
