ISBN: 9781590212080 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Greek myths held that Oceanus to be a massive river surrounding the land.

So, too, are the eleven tales within the pages of The Touch of the Sea: fantastical, at times eerie, with sightings of mermen, water spirits, and sea beasts (even the fabled "living island," the aspidochelone) as well as a smattering of pirates.
