Wikipedia article




'The Folk of the Air' is a novel by Peter S. Beagle published in 1986.

Plot summary



'The Folk of the Air' is a novel in which 1980s Californian medievalists go into the past.

Reception



Dave Langford reviewed 'The Folk of the Air' for 'White Dwarf' #96, and stated that "Perhaps I'm disappointed that a writer as gifted as Beagle should only touch the surface of his medievalists, indulging a few ironies [...] but avoiding the depths of motivation which he's well fitted to plumb."
