Dajbog and other Slavik gods - looking for good resource

I’m looking for more comprehensive book about Slavic gods, their features, symbols, for me and one of my friend that is really into the Slavic mythology and tradition. Unfortunetely, the beginning of christianity in my country, Poland, erased most of the sources about these pagan gods. And nowadays there are very few books about it.
If you have the source that is not in english, but for example, slavak, polish, czech or russian, feel free to mention about it.

Also I’m interested in Dajbog, because I found that he is a patron of werewolves.
