Beasts of the Skies

British-based creature-seeker and author Neil Arnold has an excellent new book out right now that you may want to get hold of, since it contains a significant body of cryptozoological data – as well as mountains of material on other Fortean puzzles. Its title is Shadows in the Sky: The Haunted Airways of Britain.

As the press-release for the book notes, its pages contain “…fantastic tales of dragons, said to have appeared all over the UK, from the cattle-plucking beasts of Welsh lore to London’s flying serpents. Winged, red-eyed humanoids also sneak into the pages, coverage given to classic aerial anomalies such as the Owlman of Cornwall, the Hythe monster, and the lesser known Hertfordshire ‘Mothman’ and the like. Griffins, giant birds, leather-winged batmen, flying jellyfish and sky-bound horses and dogs, occupy a surreal Ark also inhabited by spectral birds and feathery omens of death…”
