It’s hard to overstate just how influential
The King of Elfland’s Daughter has been to modern fantasy; particularly high fantasy and sword and sorcery. Lyrical and dream like, it takes us on a search for a fairy princess and the magic that mankind has always secretly craved. Masterfully written, poignant, and yet still full of exciting action and adventure!
