The
World of Fairies
by Gossamer Penwyche
Enter the fantastic realm where imagination & magic abide
& logic & reason are abandoned. It's the world of
Fairies where the unknown, unseen, & intangible operate
as the norm. Gateways to this Otherworld can be accessed by

- neither here nor there, then or now. But you can cross the
threshold any time you like through these 29 enchanting tales.
Most of them are a retelling of famous & not-so-famous
Folk & Fairy tales from around the world. Others are newly
written; some have been inspired by ideas or lines from works
by Fairy-friendly writers such as Shakespeare & Yeats.
In these tales, both the Tricksters & domestic spirits
are revealed, as are glimpses of the cultures from which they
originated. Whether its the familiar Pixie or the exotic Peri
- a beautiful female spirit of ancient Persia - they each
have a story & lesson to offer. Wait no longer - they're
all waiting for you to come visit them. Magnificently depicted
in specially commissioned artwork. 128 pages.

myths and legends from various cultures concerning dragons
and unicorns. All of this information is synthesized beautifully,

biological science, dragons, or unicorns! This is a 281-page

The
Mythic Bestiary: Illustrated Guide (hc)
by Tony Allan
Dragons
and firebirds, fairies and orcs: these are just a few of
the residents of The Mythic Bestiary. A whole menagerie
of make-believe beings from the earth, water, and air inhabit
these stunningly written and eye-catching pages, from Japans
Yukki-onna, a beautiful but deadly spirit who appeared to
stranded travelers, to the two-headed venomous snake Amphisbaena,
which hailed from the imagination of the Greek poet Nicander.
Many are hybrids such as the Quetzalcoatl, the Aztec's gorgeous
combination of serpent and bird; others, more monstrous,
tested the mettle of ancient heroes. A few, like the gigantic
winged lion, lammasu, served as guardian angels, warding
against evil spirits. This guide gives not only a taxonomy
of size, appearance, habitat, and powers, but also provides
vivid descriptions of the cultures that produced them. This
is a beautiful 256-page hardcover book.
