Mythos

We explore the folklore of fairies and landscapes, and how Terry Pratchett uses both to great affect in his fantasy novel Lords and Ladies.

This week we take a look into the shapeshifting women of European mythology with Sharon Blackie's novel, Foxfire, Wolfskin.

Telling the story of three sisters, stolen to fairyland, Black draws on myths of evil fairies and the ways that people protected themselves.

“We must not look at goblin men, / We must not buy their fruits.” ― Christina Rossetti
