Their lives, so strongly touched by the ocean, become forever intertwined when enchanting people of the sea lure them further into the underwater world…and away from each other. Jonah owns a shop devoted to treasures from the deep. They come from air, from water, from earth, and from fire. They fill our myths, our legends, and the stories we tell our children in the dark of night. They have lived among us for centuries-distant, separate, just out of sight. In a magnificent quartet of books, Froud and some of the finest writers in the fantasy field explore the wonder and the danger of a world inextricably bound to our own.

Now it is brought to vivid reality by acclaimed fantasy artist Brian Froud, coauthor of the bestselling Faeries and designer for the films The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth. It is a world most of us visit only in dreams. Enter the realm of Faerie: compelling, enchanting, and filled with perilous beauty.
