Emily Wilde is a genius scholar of faerie folklore—she just wrote the world’s first comprehensive of encylopaedia of faeries. She’s learned many of the secrets of the Hidden Folk on her adventures . . . and also from her fellow scholar and former rival, Wendell Bambleby.
Because Bambleby is more than infuriatingly charming. He’s an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother, and in search of a door back to his realm. So despite Emily’s feelings for Bambleby, she’s not ready to accept his proposal of marriage: Loving one of the Fair Folk comes with secrets and danger. And she also has a new project to focus on: a map of the realms of faerie.
While she is preparing her research, Bambleby lands her in trouble yet again, when assassins sent by Bambleby’s mother invade Cambridge. Now Bambleby and Emily are on another adventure, this time to the picturesque Austrian Alps, where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambley’s realm, and the key to freeing him from his family’s dark plans. But with new relationships for the prickly Emily to navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow, Emily must unravel the mysterious workings of faerie doors, and of her own heart.

5 books in catalog
Combining folklore scholarship with cozy fantasy, the Emily Wilde series brought a distinctive academic lens and dry humor to modern fairy literature. Heather Fawcett gained widespread recognition with Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, establishing herself as a versatile fantasy writer across adult, young adult, and middle-grade fiction. Her books have been published as New York Times, USA Today, and Sunday Times bestsellers and translated into more than twenty languages.
Before writing full time, Fawcett pursued an academic background that directly informed her world-building, earning a Bachelor's degree in Archaeology and a Master's degree in English Literature. She worked in a variety of fields including archaeology, photography, technical writing, and backstage assistance for a Shakespearean theater festival. Active as a published novelist since 2017, she initially made her mark in young adult and middle-grade fiction with works such as Even the Darkest Stars, Ember and the Ice Dragons, The Language of Ghosts, and The School Between Winter and Fairyland. In 2023, she expanded into adult fiction with Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries while continuing her middle-grade publishing with The Grace of Wild Things. Based on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Fawcett has received award nominations for honors including the Hugo, Locus, Mythopoeic, and Silver Birch awards.
A hallmark of Fawcett's fantasy narrative style is the integration of meticulous lore, atmospheric settings, and scholar-protagonists who utilize field notes, citations, and journal entries. Her work blends classic fairy tale tropes with lighthearted humor and complex magical ecosystems. Notably, dragons—whether literal creatures or subtle symbolic elements—appear in every single one of her books across all age categories. Her expanding catalog ranges from cozy adult fantasy to whimsical middle-grade and speculative works such as Agnes Aubert's Mystical Cat Shelter and A Galaxy of Whales.
