Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
Perhaps the most winning aspect of this delightful assemblage is the editor's willingness to accept "twilight realm" diversity. The fairies and other creatures who populate this anthology refuse to be trampled into restrictive definitions; they rumble into existence in any number of shapes, sizes, habits, and habitats. The Faery Reel contains rustic songs and poems; tales of elves, goblins, and futuristic fairies; and adventures involving Captain Hook and the New York Public Library digital catalogue. The contributors include Neil Gaiman, Patricia McKillip, and Delia Sherman.
Publishers Weekly
New sequels help kids get through lazy summer days. Faery world fans will find much to savor in The Faery Reel: Tales from the Twilight Realm, edited by Ellen Datlow and Terry Windling, a companion to their The Green Man: Tales from the Mythic Forest. Among the 19 tales original to this collection, Gregory Frost's "Tengu Mountain" and "Foxwife" by Hiromi Goto both add flavor with a Japanese setting. Tanith Lee's contribution, "Elvenbrood," one of the darker stories, focuses on the child-stealing tendencies of faeries, while Steve Berman's more conventional "The Price of Glamour" scatters glamour (the magical essence of faeries) and dust amid the streets of Victorian London. Other contributors include Neil Gaiman, Holly Black and Gregory Maguire. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.

From The Critics
This varied and exciting collection of short stories and poems featuring contributions by Charles de Lint, Tanith Lee, Holly Black, Patricia McKillip, Gregory Maguire, Neil Gaiman, and more, is introduced by Windling with an extensive survey of faeries in a variety of cultures and periods. Although she highlights the fact that faeries are found in the folklore of every continent, extra attention is given to British literature in her essay. Highlights of the collection include Tengu Mountain, a story of Japanese demons by Gregory Frost in which a young man's visit with his aunt turns into a horror story where nothing is as it appears. In The Faery Handbag by Kelly Link, a young woman searches for her Grandmother Zofia's lost handbag and her boyfriend who has disappeared into it. In the final story, De La Tierra by Emma Bull, an assassin designed to destroy faeries in Los Angeles realizes almost too late that the world, and especially the environment, would be a better place with more faeries in it. This collection is a natural for young adult fantasy fans. Most stories feature teens, and the variety of fascinating worlds and characters will keep young people reading. The tone of the collection is mature enough to be intriguing, and none of the stories are predictable. These stories are not children's fairy tales but darker works that comment on our world by creating parallel ones.

    must have!

    I am fascinated with the world of magic since I was little.I started collecting faery tale books, ghost books and etc. since I was 11. My family is a Christian and my father doesnt want us to believe in magic but that doesnt stop me for loving faeries and stuffs that is connected in magic. I personally am one of those gifted people who see unnatural things like ghosts and spirits roaming the world but i havent seen even a single faery yet. When I saw your book, I instantly bought it and started reading it over and over again enjoying every single part of the book. I hope to see another book like this in the future since I am still 18=)..Good work guys, God speed!!!=)
