A visually intense handbook about legendary beings. Who is the creepy shape-shifter that haunts the mysterious jungles of South America? What grotesque creature has the body of a lion and the head of a hawk? Why does a monstrous being from Greek mythology have locks of hair made of deadly, writhing snakes? Using the magic of 3-D computer-generated art--the kind used by Hollywood's top special-effects experts--noted British illustrator David West creates a visually stunning universe, the likes of which you've never seen.
