Reviews of the Faerie Handbook

“This utterly charming, absolutely beautiful book gives insight into so very many aspects of Faerie.”

“I almost wish I could come to it not knowing much about faeries; it would then be an amazing voyage of discovery. Even with my knowledge, I was still surprised and enchanted! I love it!”

— Wendy Froud

“I can see this having the same impact on a new generation of readers as Brian Froud and Alan Lee’s Faeries did way back in 1978.”

“It’s brimful of everything faerie, from gorgeous art to any number of fascinating tidbits of lore, with plenty of hands-on projects to while away the winter months.”

— Charles de Lint

“A spectacular portal to another world for fae lovers, and a lovely art book for everyone else!”

“This is a gorgeous compendium of all things fae. From interesting and well-written articles to excerpts from famous authors, this beautiful book provides a wonderful otherworldly experience that is enriched by the loveliest artwork that you will find anywhere on the subject of the fae world.

— KEM
