Rating: 3
Summary: casual reading only
Comment: The book contains a few good illustrations, but as a source of reference material it is sorely lacking. The author describes only a small number of fairies and he has the habit of jumping to conclusions that depart from traditional fairy lore.

Rating: 5
Summary: Just Fabulous
Comment: This little book gets right to the meat of Irish folklore and the various sorts of fey. Includes the mythological variance between tales from differing counties and tries to reconcile the countless spelling/name variations and the differing significance attached to various elementals. The accounts and tales are both fanciful and straightforward and carry none of that phony, fadish, fluffy bunny fru fru that poisons serious examination and/or gentle celebration of our Good Neighbours.
