Faery Reel4
Overall this was quite a delightful read. There were, of course, some stories I didn't enjoy quite as much as others, but I guess that's inevitable. The stories were quite varied, my favorites being "The Faery Handbag" by Kelly Link, a very original story about a handbag that contains a whole fairy world, "Tengu Mountain" by Gregory Frost which (along with Hiromi Goto's "Foxwife") brought Japanese mythology to the anthology, Neil Gaiman's poem "The Faery Reel" about a man who split his soul in two when he was young, and above all, "The Annals of Eelin-Ok" by Jeffrey Ford which told the story of a Twilmish, a certain kind of a fairy that lives in a sand castle. Also the introduction about fairies offered a good read.
