The Wine Dragon — Gerald Hausman

The dragon within the bottle of ancient Chinese wine emerges when you least expect it and suddenly there you are in Iceland, fighting with the Dead and the Undead. . . in the jungles of Burma, changing shape with a cream colored cat . . . in Chaco Canyon with Butterfly Boy. . . in Jamaica . . . and Germany, and all over the world with shapeshifters of all kinds, I sing of shapes that changed into new bodies, the great poet Ovid said. And this book reveals all of them. From demons to gods, and from tricksters to ogres, and from giants to zombies.
