Encyclopedia of Supernatural Beings. Gift book bound in leather.

A unique publication that brings together disparate information about supernatural beings. Brownies and brownies, elves and dwarfs, basilisks, dragons, unicorns and other magical creatures will appear before the reader as alive. The hills in which the Sidhe live will open, the World Ocean will open, revealing Leviathan and the Kraken, the bowels of the earth will open, and monsters and dwarves will come out from there. The reader will find out where the legendary islands of Avalon and Buyan are located, like Sinbad the sailor will rise into the sky on the back of a Roc bird, visit caves where kobolds knock with their hammers. The Encyclopedia of supernatural Beings is compiled on the basis of materials from Germanic-Scandinavian, Celtic, Hindu, Vedic, Slavic, Japanese, Chinese, Arabic and other mythological systems. The encyclopedia includes a bestiary - a description of fantastic animals, fish, birds, such as Pegasus and Hippopotamus, Garuda and Gamayun. The book contains a large number of unique illustrations and is intended for a wide range of readers.
