The turn of the year is the perfect time to head out to one of the neighboring worlds. You can bring from there  a positive prophecy  for the next year, or a trauma. The supernatural world of this Christmas Story contains old pictures, Christmas themes and myths, more or less known, more or less familiar.  It brings not only  a wide variety of creatures and  enchanting sceneries, but also need for action,  because the situation is not always idyllic.  Talking animals have been the  essential guides, mentors and helpers of heroes in all times and in all countries of the world – just remember  the European tale of a talking fox Ryška or  the Japanese tale of Momotaro. If you consider a stereotype of talking furry animals a nice feature, you will not be disappointed. They have their own worries and desires  in the book, which do not always coincide with the view of the heroes. Of course there is a charismatic and elegant villain as well who not only knows what he wants, but he also knows how to achieve this. He knows people and has a very good idea how they can be influenced.  And he is immortal. And he has a plan. And he can afford to wear a suit tailored by Delor.

Recommended for calming down willful kids or your relaxing reading while sipping mulled wine  in a calm and warm atmosphere of your home.
