Step into a world of hidden folk and discover a bewitching tale that will captivate your imagination. Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, by Heather Fawcett, is a Sunday Times Bestseller that combines cosy charm with heart-warming adventure.
Meet Emily Wilde, a brilliant scholar and the world's foremost expert on faerie lore. While her academic prowess is unmatched, her social skills leave much to be desired. As Emily arrives in the rugged village of Hrafnsvik to continue her research, she has little interest in befriending the locals or entertaining the company of her infuriatingly handsome rival, Wendell Bambleby.
However, as Emily delves deeper into the secrets of the elusive Hidden Ones, she finds herself embroiled in a mystery that extends beyond the realm of faeries. Who is Wendell Bambleby, and what are his true intentions? To unravel this enigma, Emily must confront the greatest mystery of all – her own heart.
This enchanting novel sparkles with snow and magic, offering a perfect blend of winter-kissed academia, gruff romance, and meticulous research. Fawcett's vivid worldbuilding and sharp-tongued protagonist will transport you to a realm where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur, leaving you spellbound and craving more.
Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries is the ideal companion for a chilly winter's evening, promising a delightful escape into a world of whimsy and wonder. Prepare to be utterly charmed by this dazzling tale that has captivated readers and critics alike.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
