A delightful and entertaining collection of short faery stories. Terri Windling's wonderful introduction covering the history and and some anthropology around faery stories alone was worth the price of the book. Not one of the tales disappointed, either.

There are pairs of words run together every couple lines, as if through some sort of formatting accident. It really does a disservice to a good book to make the digital edition feel like shovelware.
