Strange Tales Of Scotland

by Jack Strange

Strane Storie Scozzesi presenta un aspetto particolare dei misteri della Scozia. Conoscerete il fantasma che apparve al matrimonio di re Alessandro II e mostri come lo Shellycoat e il Cavallo Marino, ritenuti gli abitanti dei laghi della Scozia. Leggerete poi di Loch Ness e gli strani eventi che sono successi in questo misterioso specchio d’acqua.  Viaggerete verso le isole Flannan dove i guardiani del faro spariscono e incontrerete le strane creature che una volta si pensava infestassero le colline e le valli della Scozia, tra cu il terrificante Brollachan e la sua carneficina. Conoscerete alcune storie di sirene e tritoni e delle orribili grotte della Scozia, traboccanti di sacrifici umani come quella detta Dello Scultore di Moray. Ci saranno anche le leggende sulla Cappella di Roslin e del suo castello con un possibile collegamento con i Templari. E poi eserciti fantasma, con soldati che si rifiutarono di scomparire persino secoli dopo che le loro guerre si erano concluse ed erano svanite nella storia. Benvenuti nelle Strane Storie Scozzesi.

I write as Jack D McLean. My books were originally written as Jack Strange then re-released as Jack D McLean novels.

I’ve had a very varied career.

Its included working in a morgue, digging holes for a living, shifting heavy things onto trucks and off them again, selling advertising space, writing press-releases, and being a Solicitor of the Supreme Court (in America you’d call that being a lawyer). I’ve done other stuff too.

My favourite authors include Russell H. Greenan, Jerzy Kosinski, Jim Thompson, and Simon Kernick (and a great many more – far too many to mention).
I enjoy parties and I keep myself fit.

I'm married with two adult daughters.

How I rate books: I just rate them based on whether they had me turning the page. That's it. I don't break them down and analyse plotting, characterisation etc. Please note: there are lots of books out there that are perfectly good books, but I didn't like them. So if I give a book a bad review, don't take my word for it - read at least some of the book and exercise your own judgement!

This lovely wee book is filled with fascinating history on the strange and ghostly tales of Scotland.
You’ll learn about monsters on the Loch, creatures of the water, Bluidy Tam, the famous Edinburgh Castle, the Piper with No Fingers and so much more!

The perfect book to learn about some history of the myths and legends of a gorgeous country.
