The Faerie Tradition, Transcribed from a live recording of Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki

Nature of faeries; faerie forms; touches a bit on "faerie time" and the whole thing about not aging; differences between faeries and elementals (although I'm not seeing differentiation from nature spirits); nod to Tolkien Eldar as compared to the old-style "big" faerie people. A good read.

Choice line: "You have only got to look and read about the Tuatha De Danaan or the Fianna to realise that these guys had muscles. Schwarzeneggers - yet. The great Faerie Folk of Ireland stood six feet tall and more, and spent most of their time hurling rocks at people."
