If you think fairies are merely delicate beings who follow you about on gossamer wings, you are in for quite a shock: the kingdom of the fairy is one of vengeance, thievery, trickery, and wild creatures.

Folklore Editorial Review
**** "Fairies, Pookas, and Changelings: A Complete Guide to the Wild and Wicked Enchanted Realm" by Varla Ventura has garnered a warm reception from readers, particularly those who appreciate folklore and whimsical tales. Fans of Ventura's previous works have expressed excitement over her signature style, which blends wit and folklore into an engaging narrative. Many readers found the book to be a delightful journey into the enchanted realm, packed with obscure and fascinating tales about fairies, pookas, and changelings, as well as lesser-known creatures like trolls and coblyns. Readers appreciate Ventura’s enthusiasm for the subject matter, which shines through in her writing. The book has been praised particularly for its ability to captivate both adults and older children, making it an enjoyable read for families. The accessible nature of the content allows for reading in a variety of ways—whether cover-to-cover or in a more sporadic fashion. However, some reviewers noted that the book leans heavily on Irish folklore and may lack diversity in its tales. Moreover, a few readers were expecting more in-depth stories rather than descriptions, which led to some disappointment. Nonetheless, the book is often recommended as a light and engaging read, perfect for those needing a break from more serious literature. Overall, "Fairies, Pookas, and Changelings" succeeds in delivering a whimsical yet slightly dark exploration of folklore, making it a worthy addition to Ventura’s repertoire and a delightful experience for readers. **
