What if the fairies wrote their own stories? What would they say about themselves? What would they say about humans? Have they been maligned throughout history? I've always wanted to meet a fairy, but I doubt I ever will. I'm not sure if there're even real. Fairies inhabit our imagination and mythology and live in every culture.

What if the fairies wrote their own stories? What would they say about themselves? What would they say about humans? Have they been maligned throughout history? I've always wanted to meet a fairy, but I doubt I ever will. I'm not sure if there're even real. Fairies inhabit our imagination and mythology and live in every culture. Even the science fiction aliens of today are inspired by fairies. If fairies are so constant throughout folk stories, how could they not be real? In our inherited mythology fairies can be good or evil or just tricksters. They bite, make love, hurt people, help them, correct wrongs, and are mostly misunderstood. They avoid humans because they're offended by our crude behavior and live just outside our sight, preferring to be active at night. They are often pictured without clothes because they are modest in thought and do not carry our impure thoughts, or so the mythology goes. This is all wonderful for dreams and fantasy stories, but where in human psychology do these magical beings come from? They must be hidden in some primordial memory we inherit. This book for young adults and the young at heart explores the fairies that live in the 21st century imagination. This is the second book in a series.

It had been twenty five years since they left Earth. The kids were in awe as they looked at the planet below. They had seen pictures of Earth and Maarieda before, but that was just geography class, something not quite real until now. They had never set foot on a planet. The ship was the only home they knew. Grass, trees, lakes, and mountains were fairy tales, the stuff of imagination. But now below them it was beginning to look real, as if they might actually run through a meadow or climb a mountain.
