Description
"If leprechauns are all you can think of when it comes to Ireland's mythical creatures, think again! Besides well-known supernatural beings like the Banshee and the Pooka, we also learn of unknown monsters like the 400-eyed Suileach, and the King of otters, Dobhar-Châu. In this new edition of his bestselling Mythical Irish Beasts, Mark introduces us to eight new beasts, including Grogan and the Gruagach, the magical bird of Assaroe, and more!"--
