In the 1960s U.K., with Swinging London underway, fairies enter the light of day! Two fables of modern folklore from contemporary comics masters!
The story of a young fairy who, drawn by the lights of Swinging London, leaves her forest to pursue her dreams of becoming a singer. She meets Stella, a human with whom she quickly falls in love. But her lover's disappearance will make Anann realize that beneath the glitz and glamour of the city, rejection is only a tiny part of what awaits her...
When she arrives in London to investigate a case of missing persons linked to a strange rite, Ailith gladly accepts help from her childhood friend, Elliot, a police officer who expresses clear Anti-fairy opinions and blames them
for all the major problems in London. When the investigation entrusted to Ailith leads her to the heart of the forest, she makes a most disturbing discovery, uncovering with it a deeply buried wound.

Great start to the series!
The Pixies of the Sixties series has a unique premise: fairies have always existed but now they're recently out in the open and living among humans in 1960s England.
Ailith's story is thrilling - she's a new investigative reporter trying to make a name for herself when she gets entangled with a mystery involving people disappearing. How are fairies involved? Can she trust her friends or new acquaintances as she makes discoveries that deepen the understanding of the fairy people? You'll have to read it to find out.
I particularly loved the narrative in this one. It reads like an old-timey action comic which goes really well with the art style. Highly recommended for those who enjoyed Bill Willingham's Fables series!
