Every page of The Faerie Handbook is gorgeous, and it's jam-packed with high-quality photographs and prints of famous faerie-related artwork throughout the last few centuries., A thick, lavender tome that will serve as your guide to all things related to the faerie kingdom. I was swept off my feet by this charming book, which filled me with nostalgia and provided a visual feast for my eyes...this is a book is a must-have., The collected artwork alone in this volume is something I will treasure for the rest of my life. And of course the photography by Kirsty Mitchell and Katerina Plotnikova is not to be missed. Literally every single page is something to pause for and savor... even the end pages!, A perfect book to give at the holidays for those that love the magical allure of fairies! With an inset image on the front cover, ornate silver foil patterning on the front, spine, and back, silver stained edges, and a satin bookmark, it is a beautiful volume for all ages., A beautiful book with a huge amount of respect for faerie, layered with a heavy understanding of historical creation and context, folklore, and fairy tale. The illustrations and photography are gorgeous. This is a definitive compendium, full of lore and legend., This handbook is a love letter to those who find themselves drifting between two worlds- the mystical flower kingdom and our mundane reality... As the ultimate fairy tale, this handbook is a must read and should be in every fairy lover's collection., This exquisite anthology welcomes you into an enchanted realm rich with myth, mystery, romance, and abounding natural beauty., As I thumbed through the pages of this special book, I was amazed at its physical beauty. And as I read, I was transported to a magical realm by its lyrical prose., One of the most beautiful books ever to grace a bookshelf.... To say that The Faerie Handbook is, in itself, a work of art, is an understatement. It is also a most remarkable literary endeavor by a team that are, without a doubt, experts in their field., The imagination and magic of lore sparkles and enchants through the pages of The Faerie Handbook. Lavishly illustrated with a plethora of paintings and photographs, each page is a mystical treasure of sprightly beauty.

  • The layout was quite nice and such but a tad more expensive than it should have.

    It was nice yes, but I still prefer Brian Froud's work. You really can feel how much Brian's really love his passion, not just his work in doing and making such fabulous stories about the faeries or fae.
