Like various other titles published by Inhabit Media, an Inuit-owned press based in Iqaluit, Nunavut, Those That Cause Fear opens a window into a folk tradition with which many readers will be unfamiliar. The beings described in its pages are often fearsome, and always fascinating, accentuating the ever-present dangers of living in such an extreme and unforgiving environment. The illustrations, done by Inuit artist Germaine Arnaktauyok, capture the simultaneously beautiful and frightening nature of the creatures under discussion, while a guide at the rear gives the proper pronunciation for each Inuktitut name and term used. Recommended to anyone looking for books about Inuit folklore, or for guides to fantastical creatures. ( )
