Creatures of Fantasy

For centuries, creatures of all shapes and sizes have been invented in the human imagination. Many stories about these creatures have stemmed from older myths and continue to appear in society today. One such creature is the goblin. Goblins inspired many great writers of more recent times, such as J. R. R. Tolkien, George MacDonald, and Christina Rossetti. They continue to appear in movies and on television, usually as demons. This book dives into the fantastical stories of goblins, explores ways in which they have changed over time, and reveals how they are represented today.
