Time for the Toby FAQ.

Well, Rosemary and Rue has been on bookstore shelves for a month, and that means it's time for me to split off the Toby Daye FAQ into its own page. What questions would you like to see answered? I'm dividing them roughly, for now, into "series" (IE, publication dates, number of books, typos), "world" (Toby's world), and per-book, but this could change.

Please expect mild spoilers in the comments on this thread, with the stress being on mild. I won't answer FAQ questions that read like "on page 189 you say, but on page 317...," since that's way too much of a spoiler for a publicly-accessible website.

Game on!

Maybe some general bits about the fae races would be fun and interesting and not too spoilery. Because there are places to look these things up, but a lot of them say differing things from each other; it'd be fun to know what definitions apply to Toby's world.

From things like "What are the Cait Sidhe/Daoine Sidhe/Twlwyth Teg (dear god I can never spell that one)/etc." to things like a brief description other races we don't see as much or at all, like the... I'm blanking on the proper name of the doglike Sidhe, and the fae cattle.

Also the monsters, like the barghests and the kelpies.

Maybe just a line each, or something.
The dog Sidhe are the Cu Sidhe, but the fae cattle are new to me.
They're called Crodh Mara. They're, well, cows. Cait Sidhe like them, as long as someone else does the milking.
