Summary: Not All That Great
Review: I was expecting beautiful pictures of flower fairies with gossamer wings and dresses of silk. What I found were ugly pictures of scary, hideous monster-like "fairies." What a disappointment!

Summary: the most comprehensive faerie guide around!
Review: I've always been entranced by the faerie realm. This book weaves a spell over the common folk! Not only does Foud and Lee depict the various form of fae (seelie, unseelie, goblins, etc.); they also share the stories surrounding these mystical creatures. This campodium embodies the world of fae, and exquisitely transcends the mortal realm...letting us mortals dance but for a moment in their circle.

Summary: I can't find the words to describe it...
Review: If you thought you liked Lady C's Pressed Fairy Book (now out of print), then you'll LOVE this one!! It is the best faerie book i have ever seen, and read. It not only tells you the history of faeries, but it also gives you an idea where Faerie -the land of faeries- is, it gives you detailed information about all the wee folk! If you thought faeries were the pretty winged Tinkerbell likes, think again, and read this book! You'll get surprised on how many faerie types there is!!The book is beautifully illustrated, and a must for every one interested in faeries, and art! This one should be in the bookshelf in every home! Buy it for yourself, for your mom, your kid and for your best friend!! It makes a great present! Definately worth the money, i'd pay the double price if i had to, it's that great!

Summary: I think it's great, and everyone should have a copy!
Review: In Fearies uncover the legend and lore of Feariedom; which is beyond the mind's wildest dreams, but not the dreams of your heart and soul. Discover the Fearie's ways while reading the text written there and examining the illustrations drawn on the pages made for this one book. Purchase this book and be ready to be amazed by Brian Froud's wonderful illustrations and dive into the world of the Fearies. I liked this book very much. It fascinates me in many ways, especially Brian Froud's beautiful illustrations. I hope you'll buy it soon!

Summary: More faeries in store!
Review: It has been almost twenty years since Brian Froud and Alan Lee published this groundbreaking art book based on British faery lore. In the years since, Brian Froud has never stopped his extensive personal exploration of the faery realms--filling his studio in rural England with one extraodinary painting after another. Fans of his work will be pleased to know that a brand new book of faery lore (GOOD FAERIES, BAD FAERIES by Brian Froud, edited by Terri Windling) will be soon be available (Autumn 1998). The new book goes beyond the ancient faery lore of the Britist Isles to explore faery lore from all around the world...include faeries of the present day, bringing magic to modern life. For a taste of the forthcoming book, an article about it from Realms of Fantasy Magazine can be found reprinted on the Endicott Studio web site (Gallery section)

Summary: "Faeries" one of the most influential books of my childhood
Review: My mother gave my a copy of "Faeries" for Christmas 1980, when I was 11. I was instantly enchanted with the idea of faeries as real beings, and accepted much of the text as truth. I fantasized about spotting faeries in the woods and rocks surrounding my childhood home, and made many (sophomoric) attempts to copy Brian Froud's illustrations. As an adult I even had a flower faerie tattooed on my ankle in homage to his art My origional copy of "Faeries" is tattered and dog-eared, most of the pages have fallen out, and are hopelessly out-of-sequence, but I can't bear to throw it away. I count "Faeries" as one of the most influential books I had as kid growing up, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any child (or adult) interested in faeries or mythology. The book is incredibly well-researched, and beautifully illustrated. The hand-written text can be difficult to read at times, but adds to the wonderful illusion of illicitly reading someone's journal Bravo for reissuing this book, I am ordering my new hardcover copy today
