With their enchanting, natural powers and often fragile beauty,
faeries and nymphs can be found in myths and tales from around the
world. These captivating stories invoke their roots in nature and
magic, as well as their turbulent interactions with the human
world. Faeries and nymphs are both mythical beings, but they have
distinct characteristics. Nymphs can be found in Greek mythology
and are considered to be nature spirits. They inhabit various
natural environments such as mountains, groves, springs, rivers,
valleys, and grottoes. Some nymphs are also connected to trees
(Dryads) or bodies of water like seas, rivers, and springs
(Oceanids, Nereids, and Naiads). Faeries, on the other hand, have a
broader mythology. They appear in folklore and literature from
various cultures, ranging from Chinese to Roman, slavic to Korean.
In some traditions, fairies are known as the ",Fair Folk",, a term
encompassing various magical beings with supernatural qualities.
They can be good or bad, benevolent or mischievous but are
generally depicted with magical abilities, such as enchantment,
shape-shifting, and flying. This truly is a wonderful collection of
tales which brings together these two enchanting supernatural
forces. The Flame Tree Gothic Fantasy, Classic Stories and Epic
Tales collections bring together the entire range of myth, folklore
and modern short fiction. Highlighting the roots of suspense,
supernatural, science fiction and mystery stories the books in
Flame Tree Collections series are beautifully presented, perfect as
a gift and offer a lifetime of reading pleasure.
