Publisher's Synopsis
Unicorns, centaurs, mad dogs and hell hounds. In records and carvings thousands of years ago, we find the first mention of strange, fabulous beasts. Were they ever real animals in the physical world? Do they exist? This text provides a who's who of mystical creatures, their history and how ancient magicians knew the esoteric meanings of these beings and called upon them for their aid. Short chapters on candle burning, ritual, amulets and talisman show modern day magicians how to work with these creatures.
