Brilliant exploration of the dragon myth December 10, 2002
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The dragon myth is one of mankind's most ancient and enduring stories. Perhaps our ancestors stumbled upon the fossilised bones of large dinosaurs and that's how it all began. This wonderful book by illustrator Bob Eggleton and author John Grant explores the myth in a Tolkienesque style and is very engaging for that. The illustrations are original and impressive while the text reveals old and new slants on the dragon myth in an old-worldly language, not unlike that of The Lord of the Rings or The Silmarillion. Like those classics, this narrative has a psychological aspect giving us insight into our own thoughts and actions. Dragonhenge is a most inspiring work of art and would be the ideal gift for children or for adults who can still dream.
