With a new introduction, this collection of Slavic tales is based on the oral storytelling traditions of the peoples of Eastern Europe, from the Polish and the Slovaks to the Macedonians, Croats, Czechs and Serbians, with roots in ancient folklore and influenced by the Viking traders who settled in Kiev in the early middle ages. Stories abound with mountains, magic palaces and temples in such incredible tales as 'The King of the Toads', 'Vassilissa the Cunning', 'The Frog Princess' and 'The Feather of Bright Finist the Falcon'. Also includes 'The History of Vampires in the Slavic World'.
