About 22 years ago, I took a college course which dealt with a lot of old myths. I started keeping a list of mythological characters at that point, and the list kept growing.

Eventually, I put it on my computer. And it kept on growing. About 13 years later, I decided to bind up my notes as a holiday gift for my friends (coz I couldn’t afford a real gift), and, to my delight (and surprise) it was well-enjoyed. In fact, I did a second edition a couple of years later. People seem to enjoy my off-beat, sometimes snarky approach to the classics, so I decided to add folklore and living religions as well.

Now, I’ve finished a third edition, especially for my friends. It costs $18 (plus shipping), and it’s available from Lulu Press (link below) or directly from me. Ordering from me will be a week or so slower than Lulu, but you save a couple of dollars on shipping and I’ll sign the inside of the book. Unfortunately, I can only affordably ship to the United States, so my friends in other lands will have to get their copy from Lulu (it's really expensive to send overseas. Lulu charges about 20 dollars, I'd have to charge 24 or so.)

ABOUT THE BOOK
The book is entitled Encyclopedia of Beings from Faith and Fable, it’s about 530 pages. Here is the copy from the publisher’s site (helpfully written by a friend who is a big fan of mine):

This enjoyable and exhaustive book takes the reader on a world tour through religions, myths, and folklore. Drawing over 6,000 entries from over 450 cultures, Encyclopedia of Beings is a sweeping reference work and an enjoyable and sometimes irreverent book for casual reading.

Beautifully illustrated by Suzi Eberhard, Encyclopedia of Beings is a joy to behold and a delight to read. Students of world religions, lovers of mythology, and casual readers alike will enjoy this book.
