If you know me, you know I love fae, and I was so excited to get my hands on this book. It goes quite in-depth despite not being extremely long, and it's clear Daimler has done a lot of research. This doesn't just explore the land of fairy - it also dives into the way it's known and perceived across cultures, and throughout history. I learned some new things I hadn't come across when I was younger and first diving into the realm of fae. It also includes how Christianity influenced old beliefs, and how the view of the realm of fae has evolved in modern times. The chapters make it easy to navigate, and are invaluable if you wish to use this regularly as a reference book. I greatly appreciated the pronunciation appendix at the back. Highly recommend if you're interested in the realm or inhabits of fairy. If you want to dive deeper, the extensive bibliography gives you no shortage of things to read.

The world of Fairy has intrigued humanity across folklore and literature for as long as we have written records and into the modern period. This book seeks to detangle the convoluted history of the world of Fairy by looking at the various cultural beliefs that form the basis of the wider view and explore how those beliefs interact and impact each other. We will explore the Irish Soal Eile, Scottish Elfland, English Fairy, and Welsh Annwn before delving into modern and popcultural understandings of this Otherworld so intrinsically bound to our own.
