The legend of Atlantis is one of the most captivating and enduring stories ever told. For over two thousand years, it has stirred the imagination of philosophers, explorers, mystics, and dreamers. A city swallowed by the sea in a single day and night, a mighty civilisation punished for its hubris, a radiant island where power and beauty thrived before vanishing without a trace — Atlantis is both a cautionary tale and a timeless riddle. But what do we really know about it?

What if the shadows held more than just stories? Beneath the dense forests, over misty lakes, and beyond the edges of the known world lurk creatures whispered about in folklore and reported by eyewitnesses for centuries. In this richly illustrated guide, veterinarian and educator Karen E. Mueller, DVM delves into thirty of the world’s most haunting cryptids—mysterious beings that challenge science, spark imagination, and endure in cultural memory.
