A CHRISTMAS BESTIARY HC (C: 0-1-2)
A tongue-in-cheek guide to the beasts to watch out for
during a cozy Christmastime.
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 Bødker and
John Kenn Mortensen have journeyed far and wide to comb through
ancient tomes, listen to folk tales, and spy upon loathsome lairs to
catalog 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. Bødker'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.
John Kenn Mortensen is a Danish cult illustrator celebrated by fans around the
world for his incredibly detailed illustrations of monsters. Benni Bødker is one of
Denmark's leading writers of YA horror fiction.
