Review: LUD-IN-THE-MIST by Hope Mirllees

This is considered a classic of fantasy, one of the foundational documents of the genre  it doesn't hurt that it's very good.

The story is presented as a mystery. It focuses on the Chanticleer family, upper-class merchants who resemble the Dutch merchant families of the 17th and 18th centuries. They find the family's position threatened as they're drawn ever-deeper into a plot involving Fairy.

The book harmed its reputation,I recommend it.
