Overview: Fairy, The Otherworld By Many Names is a comprehensive look at beliefs in and views of the Otherworld across Celtic, English, and modern folklore.

Verdict: The world of Fairy has intrigued humanity across folklore and literature for as long as we have written records and into the modern period.

This book seeks to detangle the convoluted history of the world of Fairy by looking at the various cultural beliefs that form the basis of the wider view and explore how those beliefs interact and impact each other.

Thus author Morgan Daimler lovingly explores the Irish Soal Eile, Scottish Elfland, English Fairy, and Welsh Annwn before delving into modern and popcultural understandings of this Otherworld so intrinsically bound to our own.

In Fairy, The Otherworld By Many Names, Daimler passionately teaches us that the fairy world, amongst other things, actually evolves and is a stunningly diverse and constantly changing entity, in and unto themselves.

For it is here, in this Fairy world, that Daimler truly thrives, presenting us a host of helpful information that both allow the reader to understand what can be a contradictory subject and to come to their own conclusions along the way also.

Simply put, Fairy, The Otherworld By Many Names is a quite marvelous work of scholarship that will have readers, both knowledgeable and bystandingly curious, enthralled from the very first page turned.

A veritable treasure trove of knowledge, research, and scholarship from one the most prolific authors of Celtic and Irish traditions and history (Fairy Witchcraft, A New Dictionary of Fairies, Fairy Queens, Living Fairy, et al), the way Daimler explains things is as perfectly prosed as anything that has come before it (save for her own previous works, of course).
