Beschreibung
The first part of a bestselling fantasy series about a scientist exploring the world of fairies.
Grumpy Professor Emily travels to the island of Ljosland in the far north to study local folklore and fairies and to write her groundbreaking encyclopedia of magical beings. However, she faces a number of difficulties, including the fact that although she is a leading expert on all things supernatural, communicating with mortal humans is a tough nut to crack for her, so she prefers to keep to herself with her books and her dog.
Emily's research is further complicated by the arrival of her academic rival, the charming Wendell Bambleby, who instantly wins over the locals and, much to Emily's frustration, constantly meddles in her scientific work.
When the fairies lure young villagers into their realm, Emily and Wendell must join forces to try to save them. In the process, secrets about themselves come to light. What sacrifice will they have to make to save the islanders from the malevolent People? And how many fairies will Emily be able to add to her encyclopedia?
