044101481X Six stories from some of the most famous names in fantasy-all with one commonthreat-''the fair folk.'' From blithe fairies to sinister fey, some are fair, some are foul, all are fantastic. In ''The Kelpie,'' by Patricia A. McKillip, a carefree circle of bohemian artists is confronted by a being more powerful than any muse. Jane Yolen and Midori Snyder weave a tale of two sisters long-exiled from their magical realm who must survive in ours, in ''Except the Queen.'' In Tanith Lee's ''UOUS,'' a young woman with a rotten family is granted three wishes by a handsome elf-and learns that nothing good comes free of charge. A hapless slob finds his world turned upside-down when an eager brownie moves in and proceeds to clean house, in Megan Lindholm's ''Grace Notes.'' Kim Newman introduces an intrepid government investigator whose latest case pits him against a sinister brood of fairy folk known as ''The Gypsies in the Wood.'' And the serenity of the Elves is tested in a wry fable of a long-suffering magical apprentice who can't catch a break, in Craig Shaw Gardner's ''The Embarrassment of Elves.
