Wondrous Sights is a book by the Pearlmen explorer and author Lu'ul Ugaasi which chronicles the world's natural and man-made wonders.
Lu'ul Ugaasi traveled the world with her wife, the warrior Wiilo Cigale, over the course of several centuries to compile her masterwork. The book contains a catalogue of what she considers to be the architectural and natural wonders of the world. The book was published in V 12, but was in development from IV 3641 when she and her wife set out on their adventures across the world.
Wondrous Sights is one of the world's most popular and oft-copied texts. Nearly every library in the world has a copy. More sought after are the gloriously illuminated manuscript versions, done in the vibrant and fantstical style of the Tihinna people.
