Most of us on this site would call ourselves avid readers, and collectors of books, as for myself this book is a must for any serious fantasy/fiction reader. If I had to boil my book collection down to just a handful of books this would definatly be in the top picks.

It offers a very informative examination of the lierature of faerie. While most other similar books just parrot old information giving boring summaries or simple dictionary definitions of magical items this books actually brings something new to the table in an extensive but clear way.I experienced many "Aha" moments while reading and I'm sure you will too. Check it out!
