Faeries Oracle review by Melissa B.

In the late 1980s, Froud formed an artistic-literary partnership with Terry Jones, who was a screenwriter on Labyrinth. Together they produced The Goblins of Labyrinth (1986), a companion book containing Froud's concept art for the film, [32] [33] and subsequently a number of non- Labyrinth-related books about fairies and goblins. Their Lady Cottington series parodied the Cottingley Fairies phenomenon. [1] For his artwork in the first book of the series, Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy Book (1994), Froud won the Hugo Award for Best Original Artwork [3] and the Chesley Award for Best Interior Illustration.

However, the illustrations were the best thing this book had to offer, and therefore I'm giving it a bit of a higher rating for that alone.

[36] See also [ edit ] Froud is married to Wendy Froud ( née Midener), a puppet-maker and sculptor whom he met at Jim Henson Studios in 1978 while working on The Dark Crystal. [13] The couple married on 31 May 1980, in Chagford. [39] [40] Their son Toby (born 1984) portrayed the infant of the same name in Labyrinth at the age of one, [41] and later became a puppeteer and creature fabricator, [42] working alongside his parents on The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance as design supervisor. [43] Un libro indispensable para todos los apasionados del mundo de las hadas. He leído muchos libros del tema (especialmente de niña) pero ninguno como este. Nos presenta una visión realista, seria y adulta del mundo de las hadas. Olvidaos del estereoripo infantil Disney de las hadas buenas, bonitas y amigables. Su universo es mucho mas complejo, salvaje y oscuro, muchas veces maligno o terrorífico. Por esta razón no me cansaré de decir que ESTE NO ES UN LIBRO PARA NIÑOS, SINO PARA ADULTOS.
