Description

A young artist returns to her cabin in the deep woods of Canada to concentrate on her illustrations. But somehow, strange and beautiful creatures are slipping into her drawings and sketches. The world of Faerie is reaching out to her for help--and she may be its last chance for survival.

"What makes de Lint's particular brand of fantasy so catchy is his attention to the ordinary. Like great writers of magic realism, he writes about people in the world we know, encountering magic as part of that world."--Booklist

Read the other books in Brian Froud's Faerielands series, each one inspired by a piece of the famous artist's work:

Something Rich and Strange by Patricia A. McKillip
The Wood Wife by Terri Windling
Hannah's Garden by Midori Snyder
