Reviews

A thoroughly charming academic fairy tale, complete with footnotes and a low-key grumpy romance
Guardian
Forget dark academia: give me instead this kind of winter-sunshined, sharp-tongued and footnoted academia, full of field trips and grumpy romance and malevolent faeries. Emily Wilde is a narrator I won't forget in a hurry, and this book was an invigorating balm for my heart and mind
Freya Marske, author of A MARVELLOUS LIGHT
A charmingly whimsical delight, saturated with faerie magic and the equally wonderful magic of humanity. . . Five dazzling, gladdening stars
India Holton, author of THE WISTERIA SOCIETY OF LADY SCOUNDRELS
A book so vividly, endlessly enchanting, so crisply assured, so rich and complete and wise and far-reaching in its worldbuilding that you'll walk away half ensorcelled, sure Fawcett found Emily Wilde's journal in some sea-stained trunk
Melissa Albert
Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries charmed me more than any faerie king ever could. . . the ideal book to curl up with on a chilly winter's evening. I would follow Emily and Wendell to the ends of the earth. This book is an absolute delight
Megan Bannen, author of THE UNDERTAKING OF HART AND MERCY
Enchanting in every sense of the word, Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries is a delight of snow laden forests and changelings, folklore and fairy kings, meticulous footnotes and academic rivalry and adventure. Brilliant, prickly Emily Wilde and her infuriatingly charming fellow scholar have a special place in my heart now. This book is real magic
H. G. Parry, author of THE UNLIKELY ESCAPE OF URIAH HEEP
A darkly gorgeous fantasy that sparkles with snow and magic, this book wholly enchanted me
Sangu Mandanna, author of THE VERY SECRET SOCIETY OF IRREGULAR WITCHES
