Fairy stories, especially from the fertile landscape of Ireland
where the supernatural grew from the legends of the Celts, are the
magic stories of everyday folk seeking solutions to the challenges
of the day. This spritely new collection brings together the fables
and stories of banshees, kings, trembling farmers, tricksters and
beloved princesses. 'Smallhead and the King's Sons' (a Cinderella
story) and 'The Haughty Princess' (recalling Grimm's 'Kings
Thrushbeard') are amongst the many delightful tales of hope and
reckless determination. Flame Tree Collector's Editions present the
foundations of speculative fiction, authors, myths and tales
without which the imaginative literature of the twentieth century
would not exist, bringing the best, most influential and most
fascinating works into a striking and collectable library. Each
book features a new introduction and a Glossary of Terms.
