Love and Sex in Faeryland

by John Kruse

Fairies (and mermaids) have become involved with humans for centuries. We are attracted by their beauty, their otherworld allure, and the benefits they can bring to us, but involvement with a supernatural can also risk unhappiness, loss and even death. This short book considers the history of human-fairy relationships as revealed in folklore and literature and looks at the potential joys and perils involved. Evidence is gathered from across the British Isles and attention is given to fairies' physical charms, their sexuality, the dangers they can pose and to marriage and children. Various ways of getting fairy partners are examined, which range from kidnapping to the use of magic spells.

About the author

I have worked as an adviser in the voluntary sector for several decades, and have also been a freelance trainer and consultant for the last 21 years. This work led directly to the legal non-fiction I have written- my various books on enforcement (bailiff) law.

Since my late teens I have always aspired to be a novelist and, when my daughter told me she'd never read any of my books about bailiff law (and who can blame her?!) I resolved to write some stories. Now I'm hooked and have plenty of ideas in the pipeline!

I have published through established law publishers, but my fiction work has all been self published using Kindle and, for paperback copies, Amazon's CreateSpace tool. All the books are available through Amazon.
