"Is there a good non-fiction book on dragons?"

Topics: cryptozoology, books, world, mythology, non-fiction, culture

Asked by K.C._version_2.6 21 months ago

Details:

I read the Wikipedia entry on Dragon and am hoping for a recommendation for a book that explains the mythology, physiology, history or origin of dragons around the world. I know of "Dragonology" but it's children's fiction.

I think you meant something other than what you wrote. How can you have a non-fictional book on a fictional creature? No such thing. BUT! Here are few I know of:

Dragonology Handbook : A Practical Course in Dragons (Ologies) by Dugald Steer . This is your path to becoming a certified Dragonologist and a member of the S.A.S.D. (Secret and Ancient Society of Dragonologists). 80 pages.

Average Customer Review:

DRAGONS, A Natural History Karl Shuker , Simon & Schuster . A very nice book about the history of dragons. Dr. Karl Shuker is an actual Dracotologist! 120 pages.

Average Customer Review:

Dragons: Truth, Myth, Legend David Passes, Ill. Wayne Anderson. Well, the title says it all, covers the history of Dragons. 41 pages.

Average Customer Review:

Hope these help.

"Fiction book about controlling dreams"

The story followed a girl who learns about lucid dreams and learns to control and participate her dreams. She slips back and forth between her real life and the life she lives in her dreams, which I think takes her back to the late 1800s, where she meets a young couple but the husband ends up falling in love with her. The book is probably at least 5-10 years old, if that helps. Thanks for any help!
