About this title

Synopsis

This is a story book describing many creatures that appear in northern European fairy Tales and mythology. This book does not contain any game rules. For as long as we ve lived upon this green earth, we have recounted fire-side stories of things that go bump in the night. We have conjured explanations for the unimaginable, and within our consciousness, they have taken the forms of ghouls and ghosts. Within these pages you will find stories, myth and lore for the most legendary creatures. The information has been researched and drawn directly from original sources. Each and every creature is beautifully illustrated in full colour. The subjects of this book are drawn from Norse, Celtic, Baltic and Slavic tradition.
