Erik Dahl lives in Davis, California, and would like to dedicate his work on this book to his enchanting wife (who must not be named directly), to thank her for all of her support and encouragement over the past few years. In her honor, he'd like to get a few lame jokes out of his system: this book required some faerie hard work, and for faerie low pay, but writing for it was ultimately faerie rewarding, and it will likely be a faerie good read. Whew, thank goodness that's out of the way!

Timothy Ferguson lives on the Golden Coast of the Unknown Land in the South. He curates collections of stories, rationing where, and when, and to whom they go. He dedicates this work to his wife, who is even now preparing a garden for their new familiars. He never loses a book, not even this one, and he is awake while you are sleeping.

Mark Shirley haunts the woods near Newcastle upon Tyne. He can be distinguished from other varieties of troll by his bright clothing and four-dimensional hat. His Sympathy Traits include Zoology, Epidemiological Modelling, Ferrets, and Woodcarving. His Traditional Wards are Beetroot, and the Incorrect Use of Apostrophes. Mark dedicates this book to Richard, whose unmitigated and terrifying whimsy has helped defined Faerie for him.
