The link to francesca's feri pages seems to be misplaced in feri/wicca as francesca is not wiccan. in fact feri has little or nothing to do with wicca except for being the source for much of the knowledge. feri's been around for at least 5000 years, wicca for 100 years, maybe.

This is one of the best pages on the Web on this topic. I appreciate the Lynx-maximized text. Also, the categorization of other fairy sites is a very good idea. I've noticed that other keepers of links pages rarely attempt this. Thank you!

If you are interested in stopping by my site to see whom you will be joining please do.

Wanted to drop you a note to say what a terrific page this is. Wish I'd come up with it myself, and I having been to the British Isles. My email address comes from a Gaelic word, ionadh, meaning "wonder" so you can see how appropos this page is to me. Great job. Fantastic. Well done!

I am very curious about a couple of titles in your bibliogrphy. Esp. "Guide to British Folk tales"(4 vol) and "Anatomy Of Puck" by Katherine Briggs. I am a greatfan of Briggs' work in the field(pun intended) and wonder if you might be able to steer me toward REAL PHYSICAL COPIES of the above mentioned books...

I have a few of Kathrine Briggs other works in my library, and would gladly exchange information on likely mail order sources of Faerie-dom!

Thank You,

John in San Francisco

The mists of time have brought us back to complete our task which could be called bringing magic back to the land of boxes. We must all save the TREES and the old grove forests. Do what you can in your own way but remember the magic that Lights the way!

I finally found you again. It has been months. Most everytime I tried to locate you, it would come back as not accessible or forbidden for some strange reason. I am so glad to find that you are still here and providing quality information on my topic of interest. Oh yes, the web page looks great!

This is my very first time on the web and I think your web site is the best. Of course, I don't have any other site with which to compare it yet, but how can it be bad if it's about faeries? Any way, I'll be coming back here many more times in the futre. I just wish I could visit the Otherworld as easily as I can visit this site. Keep up the good work!

First of all I want to say -- I BELIEVE and second I want to say this is a great internet site to find all I need know about the faerie realm. May I also please suggest a few books I have read that make it clear to me that faeries exist.

1. Fairies at Work and Play...as Observed by Geoffrey Hodson. This book is a fabulous book that has a clairvoyants knowledge and study of the faerie realm as he has observed them.
2. A dictionary of Fairies....by Katherine Briggs. This is a wonderful dictionary with all the names needed to identify any fairy, goblin, brownie and other supernatural creatures you may come across.
3. Enchantment of the Faerie Realm: Communicate with nature spirits and elementals..by Ted Andrews.....A great book that lets your actually see these marvellous creatures through fairytales and meditation.
4. Pictures of Fairies: The Cottingley Photograph.. Foreward by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle...by Edward L. Gardner.....This book was my very first fairy book. It contains actual photographs of fairies taken in the 1920s by 2 little girls.
YOU WILL BELIEVE

Some great stuff here!
But I wanted to suggest a few excellent novels to add to your list of Top 20:

War of the Oaks by Emma Bull: Modern Fay, electric guitars, and a fun Pooka
Faerie Tale by Raymond E. Feist: Spooky tale of a fay haunting.
The Infinity Concerto and The Serpent Mage by Greg Bear: A very different faerie tale by a great sf writer.
Memory and Dream by Charles De Lint: Simply the best faerie tale of the last twenty years, in my own humble opinion.

Hope you enjoy!


Earendil's reply:I've read all of them except The Serpent Mage. Actually War for the Oaks was on my list in June when I finally found a copy of it, but that disappeared with the crash. It's now restored *8). It was out-of-print for a while. Feist's novel is already in the honorable mention. And there are already 2 other de Lint novels on the list; three would be excessive. Greg Bear's novel I just couldn't get into. I should probably add a top short story list sometime. Feel free to recommend any.

Just a quick question. Could or would you consider the 13 Icelandic "Santas" (they're more like trolls) within the realm of Faerie?

Great faerie page! Although, I think you should further revise your list of top 10 novels. One of my favorite authors, Charles De Lint has down some excellent work recently with Faerie in an urban setting. Check it out. He has definitely shaped my views of urban legends and the modernization of Faerie.

I'm having trouble finding anything on my favorite book (as you can tell), Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy Book to send to my oblivious, yet very distant friends. Can you suggest a place where I can possibly find some of the pressed fairies themselves?

I am an amateur artist and have been very interested in fairies. I have done many canvases and illustrations on Fairies, Gnomes, Vampires and the such. Most of my pictures are variations of the book FAIRIES. When I came across this sight I was so happy since the r your fairie art was the first painting that I had ever done on

Very nice. This and one other page about legends are my favorite. You might find it interesting, that up here in Maine where I live, there is an island called Monhegan that makes faerie houses out in their enchanted forests. It is very wonderful to see, and to visit.
