Solstice Wood

Another great tale about the world of faerie. Here, people try to keep the faerie realm confined to itself through the stitching of a sewing circle. The stitching represents closed boundaries, like dams on magical rivers and thorny briar blocking entry to the woods. It's an interesting take on protecting normal people of our realm from accidently wandering into faerie realm, or worse, being stolen and replaced with a changeling. McKillip is a terrific writer of prose, as I've just found out recently, and she also can handle great dialogue and suspenseful action. This book won the Mythopoeic Award in 2007.
