This book is concerned with the boundaries of faery.ampnbspWe will investigate the very limits of our understanding and our definitions of the faery folk.ampnbspAs we shall see repeatedly there are aspects of faery existence that still baffle our attempts to interpret and comprehend them because they fail to adhere to ideas of a fixed nature and predictable behaviours that are encouraged by strict traditional scientific rationalism.ampnbspOf course there are aspects of modern physics which accept mutability and subjectivity so perhaps faery nature isnt so strange after all.Whats more time and again we shall see the problems of providing permanent labels and classifications.ampnbspCertain faery types are hard to pin down and can shift from category to category sometimes seeming like faeries but at other times like ghosts or demons or monsters.ampnbspThis may feel frustrating but it is part of the wonder of our rich folklore that should be embraced.ampnbspIn this book we will encounter a range of unfamiliar faeries.ampnbspWe shall discover those that act as witches familiars and that bring dreams and nightmares we shall explore the strange forms they can adopt the surprising ways they move from place to place and even the odd games they play. ampnbspBritish faerylore will prove to be even more surprising and mysterious than we may ever have supposed.
