Through the Faerie Glass by Kenny Klein

Contrary to today`s sanitized depictions, the hobgoblins, imps, sprites, elves, and other magical creatures embodied in folklore can be quite nasty. Kenny Klein draws on folkloric record consisting of ancient songs, stories of forest and field, legends, myths and sagas, to reveal faerie`s true nature: where they live; what they do; their desires, fears, powers, proclivities, and enchantments. Entertaining and enlightening, this unique guide explores human interactions with Mab the Faerie Queen, Puck the prankster, Reynardine the fox man, Jenny Green Teeth, and an array of other legendary fey. It includes rituals and spells for faerie protection, tells the reader how to enlist faerie help in finding lost objects or gaining inspiration, and offers practical tips for those who dare to venture into the world of the Faerie.
