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, Lady Plummage has strung together evidence for an amazing story. Sprinkled throughout, Terry has again weaved his magic to bring it to life.

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.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas, Season’s Greetings, Happy Holidays, however you celebrate the end of year, we wish you all the best and hope 2024 is full of faery fun.

We will be shutting our doors over the Christmas for a much needed break after such a busy year of researching, writing and designing.

Book 2 is nearly finished. Lady Plummage will be going over the text for the book, making sure everything is just right – we don’t want any mishaps just before it goes to print.

Things have slowed here at Faeries of Tasmania. Lady Plummage has decided to rest for a while. She has been travelling a lot, gathering faery accounts from around Tasmania, which has taken its toll. She will take time out as we collate and organise book 2.

In the meantime here are some snippets from book 2. We know you’d like to see more, but things could change to the structure of the book as new information for both the faeries and Edith S Brown come to light.

Further research into the fae

We have just come across a great YouTube channel called ‘Hare in the Hawthorn’. If you love faeries, this is for you.

Thank you so much Avalon for the wonderful review.

Faeries of Tasmania 2 update

Posted under Uncategorized on February 18th, 2023 by

With the amazing reception that the first book is receiving, we are well and truly into book 2. New faeries from different locations around Tasmania, plus we are getting much more information about Edith S Brown. We won’t be able to fit everything we know about her, but we’ll certainly be having some exciting evidence.

We are also working with the Port Arthur Historic Site, with a couple of faery sightings that may be in book 2. We’ll have to see how we go for space. It could push out to a book 3 🙂

Terry is also busy translating some of the descriptions to illustrations.

It’s a busy time here at Faeries of Tasmania.
