Legend — Tom Cruise's acting aside, this rich offering<br />

from Ridley Scott describes a world that might he our own, in<br />

which the magic is vanishing through evil intent or human<br />

carelessness, and the forces of good must rally to save it. Yes,<br />

that really is Tim Curry under the giant horns.<br />

The Secret of Roan Inish — A foreign film of the<br />

people who still believe in the fae and the old ways on the<br />

rocky coast of Ireland. Selkies, take note!<br />

Bull, Emma — War for the Oaks. A mix of the gritty<br />

World of Darkness streets with fantasy elements for a marvelous<br />

good read.<br />

Carroll, Lewis — Alice in Wonderland and Through<br />

the Looking Glass. Classics. If you didn't read them during<br />

your childhood, it's never too late to start!<br />

Cooper, Susan—The Dark is Rising series. The classic<br />

Celtic myth-based series. Another childhood favorite that<br />

deserves to he rediscovered.<br />

faerie portraits and old folklore, drawn as a field guide. A<br />

must.<br />

mythos of the world. Several issues of both lines feature the<br />

world of the fae.<br />

Lackey, Mercedes — Knights of Ghosts and Shadows<br />

and Summoned to Tourney. Two wild, fun tales of medieval<br />

recreation, pagan rock bands, and Bay Area fae. Not classics,<br />

but still fun.<br />

Lewis, C.S. — Narnia Chronicles. Read this stuff. If<br />

you have to ask why, you probably haven't.<br />

de Lint, Charles—Jack the Giant-Killer. The Unseelie<br />

are rampaging in Canada, the power of the Seelie is waning,<br />

and a young woman named Jackie must step into the role of<br />

the foretold hero. A rollicking retelling of the old folk tale for<br />

the Adult Fairy Tale Series edited by Terri Windling and<br />

Eileen Datlow.<br />

de Lint, Charles — Greenmantle. A powerful tale of<br />

ancient mysteries in the modern Canadian woods.<br />

Lovecraft, H.P. — The Dreamquest of Unknown<br />

Kadath. Lovecraft wasn't all doom and gloom. This series of<br />

stories takes you through realms literally created from the<br />

stuff of dreams, from the mystic cats of Ulthar to the strange<br />

night-creatures that haunt the chasms.<br />

Music<br />

Many of these albums can be found in any good music<br />

store, although their unusual styles sometimes make them<br />

hard to classify. Some may be found in the Pop/Rock section,<br />

some under New Age.
