Brian Froud and Terry Jones illustrations of the goblins of the movie Labyrinth. Includes the names and story of each goblin.DetailsAuthor: Brian Froud &amp; Terry JonesPublisher: Henry Holt &amp; CompanyYear: 1986A huge heavy book, full of conceptual designs of about 100 different goblins (some from the movie, the others in hiding in the Labyrinth) by Brian Froud, all faithful reproductions of his ink on parchment original drawings, with Monty style narrative curtesy of Terry Jones. There's also a generous amount of full colour prints of the Wiseman, Sir Didymus, Toby and a brown-haired girl who was the predecessor of our Sarah. Shame about there being no pics of Jareth, as he himself was originally conceptualised as a muppet (cue thoughts of Sarah dancing with a Big Bird equivalent). If you love Brian Froud's Fantasy art and love Labyrinth, you will need to have this book.

"Once upon a time, I thought faeries lived only in books, old folktales, and the past. That was before they burst upon my life as vibrant, luminous beings, permeating my art and my everyday existence, causing glorious havoc...." In the long-awaited sequel to the international bestseller Faeries, artist Brian Froud rescues pixies, gnomes, and other faeries from the isolation of the nursery and the distance of history, bringing them into the present day with vitality and imagination. In this richly imagined new book, Brian reveals the secrets he has learned from the faeries -- what their noses and shoes look like, what mischief and what gentle assistance they can give, what their souls and their dreams are like. As it turns out, faeries aren't all sweetness and light. In addition to such good faeries as Dream Weavers and Faery Godmothers, Brian introduces us to a host of less well behaved creatures -- traditional bad faeries like Morgana le Fay, but also the Soul Shrinker and the Gloominous Doom. The faery kingdom, we find, is as subject to good and evil as the human realm. Brilliantly documenting both the dark and the light, Good Faeries/Bad Faeries presents a world of enchantment and magic that deeply compels the imagination.

Originally conceived by the publisher as a "simple goblin calendar with which to shamelessly exploit another masterpiece of popular culture by Froud and Berk," (and without including any of the "usual problems" that often attend their continuing researches into the goblin world), the plan has gone horribly awry. Nearly completed, the proofs of the calendar - needing only Mr. Froud's final approval but left untouched in his studio while he enjoyed a brief but necessary mental health sabbatical in the locked attic of a local Dartmouth fish restaurant - were grabbed by the goblins. Taking it upon themselves to make "improvements," the little blighters transformed what would certainly have been an inoffensive and tasteful wall calendar into an absurd and grotesque "Almanac of Goblin Delights." Swiping Froud's FedEx number, the goblins shipped the proofs back to the publisher marked Ready To Print!" With Goblin holidays and festivals, plus the more obscure goblin "entries" translated and interpreted at the last minute by renowned "Goblinologist" Ari Berk, Abrams Goblins! 2006 calendar is sure to delight and disgust mortals everywhere.
