rdf:langString The Fairies of Sadieville is an urban fantasy novel by American writer Alex Bledsoe, first published in the United States in April 2018 by Tor Books. It is the last in a series of six books by Bledsoe about the Tufa living in a remote Appalachian valley in East Tennessee. The Tufa are descendants of Irish fairies and were found in the area when the first European settlers arrived. The Fairies of Sadieville generally received positive reviews from critics. The book's name was derived from "Sadieville", the title of a song by South Carolina singer-songwriter Jennifer Goree that was released on Dont Be a Stranger, her 1998 album with Appalachian Soul. Bledsoe stated that The Fairies of Sadieville is the final Tufa book. He said: It’s not that I don’t have more ideas; rather, the ideas I have don’t go anywhere new. If I did continue, there’s the danger I might start repeating myself out of desperation, or laziness, or both. What I’ve tried to make compelling and unique might degenerate into soap opera. What I’d hoped was magical and delicate might become trite and obvious. So I’ve decided to end it now with a story that fills in a lot of the blanks I’ve hinted at in the prior books, and in the process wraps up the various subplots running throughout the series.
