My parents operated a large gemstone business in Melbourne named 'Minex'. Over the years many treasures were collected and saved. My father now feels it is time to let these special pieces go & regularly brings me a bucket of his treasures that he kept from stock & asks me to clear them on eBay. We will be offering items regularly until (many, many buckets) are cleared (probably 20 years!!). I am a practicing gemologist & operate a college of natural therapies, I have authored several books & teach esoteric gemmology. I am delighted to share these lovely pieces with you.

ABOUT US: For over 19 years, we have operated a mail order business, natural therapies centre, college of Intuitive Sciences & Natural Health Clinic (with showroom)  in Warrandyte (Melbourne) (not just a cyber store). You can buy with confidence.  We supply a high quality range of health & new age products (retail & wholesale See our website listed by clicking the “ME” symbol next to our user name above).   On eBay we clear excess stock & personal items. Always a bargain & perfect for yourself or gifts.

Monsterology: The Complete Book of Monstrous Beasts BOOK

Brand New - Fabulous

Scroll down for description:

 

Here's the general book auctions info:  I've had a bit of a clean up and we have so many books and related (new age & gemmological) items, so I'm listing them in several auctions (any that do not sell will be relisted - as store inventory within a few days of ending).

Over the years we have amassed 100's of gems, collectables & books - whilst I love them all (& they are fascinating) it's time for some to find a new home. Some are brand new from our showroom - others are from our personal collection and may have some general usage marks on them (any questions, please ask before bidding)

 

As books are quite heavy - the postal rates may be high (in Melbourne metro we can get up to 20kgs for $10 combined). Pop some more in your purchases to save on shipping costs.

I am more than happy to combine postage (we charge $3 packing per parcel, not per item and then Aust' post rates) so take a look - Check out my other items!

 

Customers outside of Australia - please look at www.auspost.com.au to provide a postal estimate from (3113 Australia) as OS shipping can be expensive.

• A second major volume by the esteemed Dr. Drake — a lavish exploration of fantastical beasts, from yetis to unicorns
  
  Do krakens really lurk below the ocean waves?
  Do griffins command the air above?
  In a fascinating new discovery sure to rival the ground-breaking DRAGONOLOGY, the intrepid Dr. Ernest Drake turns his inquisitive gaze from dragons to other so-called mythical creatures. Included are:
  
  * a removable letter from Dr. Drake
  * multiple foldouts, flaps, and pull-outs
  * textured "samples," including sea serpent skin and a feather from a winged horse
  * sundry booklets — including riddles to tell a sphinx
  * a cabinet of curiosities containing yeti fur, a hippogriff feather, and more
  
  For anyone who has ever wondered whether legendary beasts still wander among us, this lush look at an astounding array of creatures offers everything a true believer would want to know.
  
• The latest in the popular "ology" series, Monsterology: The Complete Book of Monstrous Beasts is as beautiful and elaborate as its many companion volumes. Featuring writings on fantastic beasts from griffons and hippogriffs to phoenixes, the pegasus, unicorns, kraken, sphinx, and much more (but not dragons - they're covered in a different book!), Monsterology reads a bit like a nineteenth century naturalist treatise. Numerous delicate pop-up flaps, textured "hide samples" or other special tidbits adorn the pages - most notably the so-called "ashes from the nest of a phoenix". "Ashes from a phoenix's nest [like those above] are said to give long life. They should never be ingested, as this could prove disastrous. Instead, the ashes are so potent that simply keeping this book on a nearby shelf will have a noticeably beneficial effect in fifty years or so." The colorful artwork adds the perfect touch to this "must-have" for any fantasy buff's private collection.
  
• My 11-year-old son who loves Dragonology and all kinds of mythical beasts loves this book. It isn't so much about monsters as it is about creatures from mythology.
  
• Monsterology - I purchased this book for a grandson who plays video games with violence, which I do not like. He was completely intrigued with this book. Normally he leaves the DVDs and toys at my place but this book he begged to take home to read and to take to school. He loved the "cabinet" on last page where he can place his own "specimen". His older brother [18 yrs old] was caught reading Monsterology ! Great book for kids. I also ordered another book from the same author.
  
• My grandson is collecting all these books and his older sister has used as book report material and they are so much fun opening the envelopes and doors within the book to find hidden treasures. He has almost all of the "ology" books and his friends are very envious.
  
• This book, this whole series, is great for my kids. They are masterpieces of great beauty, and I recommend the whole "ology" series for children and adults alike.
  
• My son has most of this series and loves this one just as much as the first one he got!
