5.0 out of 5 stars So many things make sense now., August 23, 2001
By 
eloisebd (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Books of Faerie (Paperback)
I've been reading through the Books of Magic series of graphic-novel compilations, and getting them in an odd order occasionally (based on what I can find when). Reading this volume made much of one particular volume of the Books of Magic make incredible amounts of sense - it's the backstory, the story that happens between the volumes. It also, however, stands on its own quite well. If you like Neil Gaiman, Emma Bull, or modern fantasy and fairy tales at all, I highly recommend this. A lovely fey tale, full of magic, betrayal, and secrets.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great prequal to a great series, March 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Books of Faerie (Paperback)
This book is the prequal to the Books of Magic, a series about Tim Hunter, and his journey to become the greatest wizard alive. However, this novel is about Tim's Mother, Titania, the fairy queen from Shakespeares Midsummer Night's Dream, on how she became a sorceress capable of hiding the fact that she is a human being, and becomes the mother of the greatest mage of our time.

5.0 out of 5 stars magical series, May 16, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Books of Faerie (Paperback)
The books of Magic and now this Book of Faerie are by far my favorite fantasy series of all time.

Beautiful Comic book format packed with enough magic/mythology to make even large text based fantasy books feel shallow. Have read whole series countless times and I keep finding new surprises each and every time arround.

The best part is that the setting is so believable, the stories so tied in to the history we all know, and the characters so well drawn that you would not be too surprised if you found out you were living in John Ney Rieber's world all along.

I highly encourage you to travel to this land of magic.
