Editorial Review: Product Description: A second major volume by the esteemed Dr. Drake — a lavish exploration of fantastical beasts, from yetis to unicorns Do krakens really lurk below the ocean waves? Do griffins command the air above? In a fascinating new discovery sure to rival the ground-breaking DRAGONOLOGY, the intrepid Dr. Ernest Drake turns his inquisitive gaze from dragons to other so-called mythical creatures. Included are: * a removable letter from Dr. Drake * multiple foldouts, flaps, and pull-outs * textured "samples," including sea serpent skin and a feather from a winged horse * sundry booklets — including riddles to tell a sphinx * a cabinet of curiosities containing yeti fur, a hippogriff feather, and more For anyone who has ever wondered whether legendary beasts still wander among us, this lush look at an astounding array of creatures offers everything a true believer would want to know.

Rating: - A "must-have" for any fantasy buff's private collectionThe latest in the popular "ology" series, Monsterology: The Complete Book of Monstrous Beasts is as beautiful and elaborate as its many companion volumes. Featuring writings on fantastic beasts from griffons and hippogriffs to phoenixes, the pegasus, unicorns, kraken, sphinx, and much more (but not dragons - they're covered in a different book!), Monsterology reads a bit like a nineteenth century naturalist treatise. Numerous delicate pop-up flaps, textured "hide samples" or other special tidbits ... Read More: |
