    Anglo-Saxon elves [Old English ælfe] are one of the best attested non-Christian beliefs in early medieval Europe, but current interpretations of the evidence derive directly from outdated nineteenth- and early twentieth-century scholarship. Integrating linguistic and textual approaches into an anthropologically-inspired framework, this book reassesses the full range of evidence. It traces continuities and changes in medieval non-Christian beliefs with a new degree of reliability, from pre-conversion times to the eleventh century and beyond, and uses comparative material from medieval Ireland and Scandinavia to argue for a dynamic relationship between beliefs and society. In particular, it interprets the cultural significance of elves as a cause of illness in medical texts, and provides new insights into the much-discussed Scandinavian magic of seidr. Elf-beliefs, moreover, were connected with Anglo-Saxon constructions of sex and gender; their changing nature provides a rare insight into a fascinating area of early medieval European culture.

    Rudolph! is a first-person account of the behind-the-scenes workings at the North Pole. Narrated by Bernard Rosewood, one of the elves of the North Pole Consortium, the story begins with Santa's realization that a young girl's request to get her dad back for Christmas isn't going to happen. Dad, you see, died in a car accident on a snowy road shortly after Thanksgiving. The NPC can do a lot, but they can't do miracles. Enter Rudolph, who has been hairless, cranky, and perpetually irradiated since the unfortunate malfunction of the Nuclear Clock in 1964. Rudolph is a survivor of the worst accid The Letter -- The Crusade -- Off Season -- The Musical -- Acknowledgements

    A los duendes chisposos les encantaban las Cosas del Aire. Sí, esas que nadie ve, pero existen. Con sus trajes de colores chillones y sus alegres sonrisas que derramaban luz, iban todo el día de acá para allá y de allá para acá, buscando sorpresas voladoras. Cuando las encantraban, las apretaban fuertemente contra su pecho para que les hicieran cosquillas por dentro. Hasta que de repente un día llegaron las brujas narigudas, grises y requeteserias para llevarse las Cosas del Aire The Sparkly Elves treasure the things of the air--surprises and sensations that no one can see but that bring joy--until the Snouty Witches decide to get rid of anything that is not useful so that everyone will work hard and make them rich
