The Book of Wonders: Ibn Fadlan's Bizarre Encounters

By MISSO EDITION

"Here, at the very edge of the known world, I faced horrors that defied the limits of nightmares. This is not a tale of men and swords... this is the record of a realm never meant for mankind."

Step into a world where history and cosmic horror collide.

THE BOOK OF WONDERS: Ibn Fadlan's Bizarre Encounters is a heavily illustrated dark historical fantasy that plunges you into the unforgiving, frozen wastelands of the 10th-century North. Based loosely on the historical travels of Ahmad ibn Fadlan, this grim reimagining replaces earthly tribes with nightmarish entities, ancient gods, and forgotten curses.

Through chilling, journal-style entries and breathtaking, full-page classic etching-style illustrations, you will witness:

The Chained Behemoth: A primeval entity bound in the abyss.
The Flesh Eaters of the Deep Taiga: A tribe that feasts on the unimaginable.
The Frozen Village: A settlement locked in eternal, terrifying ice.
The Walkers of the Wastes: Colossal shadows breathing blizzards into existence.

Book Features:

Immersive Storytelling: Dark, atmospheric text that reads like a lost, forbidden manuscript.
Stunning Artwork: High-resolution, pure black-and-white monochrome illustrations crafted in a haunting etching style.
Epic Dark Fantasy: Perfect for fans of Norse mythology, Lovecraftian dread, and medieval gothic horror.
