A CHRISTMAS BESTIARY
Εκδότης Fantagraphics , ISBN 9781683966548
In the wintry season, when we all delight in joyful thoughts of family,
presents, and sugarplums, we mustn't forget that the night is dark and
full of terrors. Thankfully, bold adventurers Benni Bodker and John
Kenn Mortensen have journeyed far and wide to comb through ancient
tomes, listen to folk tales, and spy upon loathsome lairs to catalogue
the most frightful creatures of the netherworld that appear around
Christmastime.
A CHRISTMAS BESTIARY is an essential guidebook to all the horrors that
await us during the darkest time of the year, from common creatures
such as Baba Yaga and the Krampus to the less encountered (but quite
deadly) Yule Wight and Gryla. Bodker's brief text entries include the
lore and background of each creature, plus handy info such as danger
level that will help you survive (but no guarantees!). Mortensen's
gothic, pen-and-ink renderings bring these bone-chilling beasts to life
on the page. Eerie, playful, and practical, A CHRISTMAS BESTIARY is the
perfect collection for the ones who love - or fear - the things that go
bump in the night.
