Faeries

Sep 15, 2008 01:42

I was wondering if anyone has stumbled across some quality urban fantasy material about faeries? I'm almost completely clueless. The only one that immediately comes to mind is War for the Oaks (highly recommended).

Any other suggestions would be appreciated. I'm without any books lined up to read right now and it's kinda freaking me out.

WftO is still one of my favorites (despite how corny it can be, especially towards the end), but most everything in Charles de Lint's Newford-based books. Start with The Onion Girl, Alanna!

You and your Onion Girl. *shakes head sadly*

P.S. Miss you. :( I've been forlornly looking at job openings in Seattle.

The Dresden Files omg!!

Also, I definitely read some other good books with them (although faeries are my less-loved Urban fantasy characters)...I'll have to check things out as soon as I'll be home...:-)

Damn yooooooooooooooooooooooooou. I just finished reading the Dresden series thus the vacant reading void since he doesn't come out with a new book until next year.

Why do you recommend these things that I've already read? ;)

I kid!

I have read Laurell's ( my original post on an anti-LKH forum) and Briggs' books (actually, if you haven't already read Briggs' On the Prowl novella and her follow up novel, Cry Wolf, I'd recommend it. It's set in the same universe as Mercedes Thompson but examines different characters.)

I've not read the others yet, so I'll put them high up on my list. Thanks for the suggestions!
