Faerie Tales by Martn H. Greenberg and Russell Davis



Faerie Tales is a collection of short stories involving Faerie. The writers of this short story collection take the same approach as Tolkien once did to the land of Faerie, that is the Perilous Realm where anything can happen. As with any short story collection there are good stories and bad. I think my favorites were Sweet Forget Me Nots by Charles DeLint about a group of fairies called the Gemmin who bring happiness to those that need it and this time reach out for a boy named Ahmed. Changeling by John Helfers about a changeling boy named Trent that returns to Faerie several years later, and A Very Special Relativity by Jim Fiscus about a man that finds out that the spaceship where he works is powered by elves. But there were only a few of these tales I didn't like, so I feel that is a pretty good track record :).
