Description

A collection of mythological beasts and creatures from around the world brings together a fascinating array of stories. From Norse to Celtic, Greek to Indian, Japanese to Egyptian traditions, this new collection features a diverse range of tales that explore the weird and wonderful creatures that appear in myths and legends. These fantastical beings are often used to demonstrate moral or fabulistic stories, and explain extreme natural phenomena. You'll find familiar creatures like the Phoenix, Scylla, and Charybdis alongside lesser-known beasts like the Simurgh, a gigantic mythical bird from Persian mythology. Other creatures include goblins from Norse folklore, ogreish monsters from Japanese mythology, and nymphs, fairies, and sprites that appear in many different traditions. This collection is part of the Flame Tree Gothic Fantasy, Classic Stories and Epic Tales series, which brings together a wide range of myth, folklore, and modern short fiction. With its beautiful presentation, this book makes a great gift for anyone interested in mythology and folklore.
