Product Information

There isn't a story here and the book is fairly disorganized if you are really into learning about faerie lore. The beauty is there and so is the creativity/imagination, but the book also ends rather abruptly and lacks structure. It reminded me when I was a kid, and I loved to draw dragons and make up their backstories and what they used their claws and teeth for, for example.

The font used was a super slanted and cramped cursive font that I struggled to read, especially on some of the faerie names. Bellissimo volume, di pregio, bellissime e interessantissime le creature riportate con cura dall'autrice. I set out to build a career as a fantasy illustrator but, to be honest, it never really worked out for me, I never felt like I was doing anything I should be doing, and I hated the assumption that I would just draw faeries. There doesn't seem to be infant faeries, so it's unknown how any of these faeries propagate their species, especially the hobgoblin and brownie (pronounced brawnie) have no females, even though gender is not a thing.Perhaps because the creatures described in that half are closer to the worlds of Faeries - it is when Compiet creates her completely own collections that her writing starts to spark. The Faultlines is an ancient name given to those places where the veil between this world and the Other is thinnest.

Both the signed version and the signed/sketched version will come with a signed and numbered print of the cover image. I absolutely loved this book, the artwork was stunning and it’s set up like a little field guide to the different types of faeries. I want to give people a glimpse of the “what if” to ignite their imagination, to bring them back to their childhood and to say it’s okay to look at ordinary things with extraordinary eyes.

Every single page is created with love, the quality of the pages, the binding, the cloth cover with gold embossed title is all outstanding and Iris’s art well deserves this high quality treatment!
