I am just re-reading Faerie Tale by Raymond Feist. I read it when I was about 14 or so and really enjoyed it - even though I don’t read a lot of this genre.

Can anyone recommend others on The Wee Folk?

Jim Butcher’s The Dresden Files series doesn’t FOCUS on the fae, but they play a big part throughout.

Jack Vance’s Lyonesse series is all about the fae.

The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett. (Note that the title characters aren’t fae, but fae are important in the novel.)

Also _Lords and Ladies_ by the same author; some familiarity with the Discworld, or at least the Witch’s books may be useful.
