Faeries of Tasmania
Collected sightings around Tasmania
Faeries of Tasmania series
UPDATE – Vol 3 will be available from the 18th October through Tassie bookshops and some bookshops on the mainland.
Vol 1 & 2 and the new novella look great together. If you’re new to finding out about the series, welcome. The novella is due out this Christmas 2026.
Vol 1. Introduces you to Lady Plummage. Her fascination for Tasmanian faeries after seeing one as a young girl up on Cradle Mountain has led her to travel across the diverse landscapes of Tasmania, collecting faery encounters from witnesses. You’ll find 20 within the book, each encounter have been beautifully illustrated to sit next to each story. You’ll find out about Lady Plummage’s fascination for Edith S Brown, the 1900s Hobart chocolatier and her collection of merchandise from the mysterious Edith.
Vol 2. Builds on Edith’s story. Lady Plummage believes Edith has something to do with the faeries found in Tasmania.We also have another 20 faery encounters with illustrations.
Vol 3. The Bind. Within these pages of the novella, Lady Plummage has strung together evidence for an amazing story. Sprinkled throughout, Terry has again weaved his magic to bring it to life.

Book 3 is off to the printers and will be available throughout Tasmania this Christmas.
• Hardback

• Black and white illustrations
Terry will be doing signings at Petrarch’s in Launceston on the 21st November 2026.
Book 3
Book three in the Faeries of Tasmania series has now been written and illustrated. It will be different to the first two. The third will be a novella, written by Lady Plummage, who has been working hard, stitching evidence together of how the faeries came to be in Tasmania.
Terry has finished the black and white illustrations and overall design of the book. It looks stunning.
We hope you will enjoy the next chapter in Edith’s life.
Tiny Book of Sketches
The Tiny Book of Sketches are the sketches that didn’t make it into vol 1 or vol 2 of Faeries of Tasmania for one reason or another.
The special concertina style booklet is printed both sides, which when folded, fits neatly into the beautifully etched wooden box. Each concertina style booklet is numbered and signed by Terry, and comes with a hand printed Faery lino print.
Size of the unfolded booklet is 840mm wide x 85mm high.
There will be only 50 created in this series.
We are taking orders through email at present as the shop is yet to be launched. Please reach out to us for prices and postage to your area.
First look at ‘Faeries of Tasmania’ Vol 2
Lady Plummage has given us permission to upload the cover and sample spreads from Vol 2 of Faeries of Tasmania.
Following on from the success of the first book, Lady Plummage has done it again with Vol 2.
Along with the 20 new faery interviews accompanied with full colour illustrations, Lady Plummage has delved further into Edith’s life, who is featured on the cover. In Vol 1, Lady Plummage only had a light dusting of evidence about Edith and her connection to the faeries in Tasmania. Vol 2 will go deeper with more evidence brought forward by readers of the first book. With more evidence becoming available, she has managed to piece together her story, from her arrival in Hobart to her disappearance.
Vol 2 will also have an excerpt from the next publication covering Edith’s Story. We are not sure when this will be available, but please drop in from time to time to see the progress of this publication.
Vol 2 is due out this Christmas in various bookshops.
Volume 2 of Faeries of Tasmania
As you may have noticed, we have changed ‘Book 2’ to ‘Volume 2’. Lady Plummage wanted all future posts to have this change to align with her collections of faery witnesses.
As vast as Lady Plummage’s collections are, we can only fit 20 of her favourite sightings within the next volume along with the added story of Edith S Brown, which is changing all the time due to more information coming in from readers of her initial book.
Speaking of Edith, it has come to light her connection with faeries being in Tasmania, has now stalled. More information will be in Volume 2.
Even though Lady Plummage has stalled a little with regards to Edith’s involvement with the faeries, she has gathered enough information to begin writing the novel of Edith’s life. No timeline has been set for this release.

The exhibition comprises work from various artists, which have a connecting theme of magical realms. So, why don’t you drop in and escape this world for little while – you never know what you might find.
We are also showing a special print from Faeries of Tasmania volume 2, due out this Christmas 2024.

Happy New Year!
This is going to be an exciting year for us here at Faeries of Tasmania.
Considering the success of the faery exhibition we had in Brisbane, we’ll be having more this year, not only in Brisbane but possibly in our home state of Tasmania. More on this as things develop.
And obviously the second book from Lady Plummage will be available for Christmas.
We are also looking into a special epub edition of more faery encounters from around Tasmania. This will be totally separate from the physical books and possibly just a black and white edition of short interviews and sketches that haven’t been included in the full colour editions.
Lady Plummage has only just allowed us to post a little about her book 3. Yes, she is working on book 3! This will be Edith’s story, which you would have learnt about in book 1, book 2 will also go into more detail.
All we know is that Lady Plummage will be writing a novel on what she believes Edith went through during her time in Hobart.
