Succumb to your imagination and venture into a realm where everything around you isn't quite as it seems and live out your dreams in a world of things that never were. Encyclopedia Of Things That Never Were is an depth type of encyclopedia that takes the reader into different worlds where they are accompanied by mythological beings, devilish monsters, mysterious worlds unlike our own, and magic all around. This book is not your ordinary type of encyclopedia but a collection of excerpts containing intriguing information about fictious and non-fictious characters and mysterious places throughout the world. It is the type of book that can be used for reference or for the true believers of the unexplained. Once the pages of this book have been opened by a new reader they have no choice but to delve into enchanting worlds unlike our own and open their minds to the extraordinary. Upon reading this book, you mind might question yourself about what types of unexplained places and beings exist that you've never heard of. The answers are all around you when you read through the chapters that contain the following: Things Of The Cosmos (zodiacs, gods and goddesses); Things Of The Ground And Underground (elves, fairies, mythological creatures); Things Of Wonderland (lost cities and unknown lands); Things Of Magic, Science, And Invention (magical spells and scientific discoveries); Things Of Water, Sky, And Air (unknown creatures that thrive in water and air elements); and Things Of The Night (sinister and devilish beings that live among the night).
Mind you, this book is vast in size and weight but the tales within are far worth it. As adults these tales seem frivolous, but open your mind to that of a child where everything is real and nothing is quite as it seems. Close the door to your mind to the ordinary and enter the extraordinary into a world of things that never were...
