About Vaesen:
"Johan Egerkrans’ collection of creatures from the Scandinavian folklore has become a crossover phenomenon. The dark forests, deep lakes and vast mountain ranges of Scandinavia are home to a multitude of supernatural beings. They are known as the little people, the invisibles, or simply the fair folk. When someone vanishes in the woods, when the milk curdles over night, when strange noises are heard in the loft or when an unexplained ailment strikes, it is said to be the work of such entities.."
I am a long way from Sweden, both in space and time. However, with the name Anderson, I have a spiritual connection to Sweden and the Nordic world. Your book has strengthened that connection. The artwork is wonderful and the English written content is solid. Well done!
I absolutely love this book! The cover itself is a textured material that immediately reminded me of older books my parents kept from their childhoods. It gives the book this really beautiful, almost vintage feel that suits the folklore inside perfectly.
The illustrations are beautifully done and incredibly detailed. Even the smaller sketches randomly placed throughout the pages have so much detail put into them. I find myself stopping to look at all the little drawings just as much as the full-page artwork
Superb book full of richly imaginative pictures that are fascinating and quirky. First class quality in all ways. Shipping was quite fast and the book was well packaged. Highly recommended!
Had a fantastic experience with this book! The book itself is wonderful, but the help of the seller made it even better. I was having issues with UPS delivering the order, and the seller was incredibly helpful in making sure the book got to me! I would absolutely recommend!
Love this book, the cover feels really nice and so do the pages. The illustrations are amazing. My 17mth old is loving looking at the pictures as I read the words to him.
Such a beautiful book! Got it for myself on my 22nd birthday and I’ve already read through it all. From the descriptions to the art, everything about it is magical!
I absolutely love this book. The beautiful illustrations have such an impact and really bring the stories to life.
From the beautiful Älvor to the frankly scary Näcken, every page is a treasure.
Beautifully made book, gorgeous illustrations and a charming writing style. Will hold a special place in our new home and was a perfect 40th birthday gift for my partner.
