Huw Aaron is a Welsh cartoonist, author and illustrator. After a short and fairly hopeless career in finance, Huw found a niche as a magazine cartoonist, producing joke cartoons for, among others, Private Eye, Prospect and The Spectator. Huw then started making comics and illustrating children’s books in his native Welsh. Since 2013, he has written or illustrated over 60 Welsh-language books, and has won numerous awards including the 2023 Tir na n-Og and Welsh Children's Book of the Year prizes. He was also founding editor of the comic Mellten, and presented the weekly art programme Cer i Greu on S4C. Huw’s harshest critics – and his best friends – are his wife Luned and their two daughters.<b>I loved everything about this book</b>. It's just <b>SO funny</b> and <b>it looks brilliant.</b> Love the energy, love the palette, love the textures love the characterisation . . . Move over Tinkerbell, there's a new favourite fairy in town.

<p><b>You'll be wowed</b> when you step into the bustling, offbeat, technicolour <i>Unfairies</i> universe. It's brimming with wacky and lovable beasts, slugs, insects and ... fairies. <i>Unfairies </i>is <b>anarchy at its best</b> - <b>Huw Aaron somehow makes making comics look effortless </b>(they aren't). There isn't a single stiffly drawn or ugly mark in this book. <b><i>Unfairies </i>shows a real mastery of the form </b>with spreads skilfully balanced between<b> snappy, fast-moving</b> panel sequences and <b>big splash pages</b> or double paged cross section maps that you <b>could get lost in for hours</b>. The sound effects and action bubbles and lettering are so nicely done. <b>The dialogue is hilarious, the story is pacy and the illustrations are bursting with energy. </b><br /><b><i>Unfairies </i>is enviably bonkers and I loved it.</b></p>

<b>Fantastic, frantic, fairy fun. </b>The artwork is gorgeous -<b> every page dripping in wonderful detail,</b> and the<b> genuinely hilarious </b>story moves at such a pace it'll leave you breathless.
Jamie Littler, bestselling author of Frostheart
<i>Unfairies</i> is <b>a wild, witty adventure</b>. Pip and their scrappy crew of fairy misfits set off on an epic (and totally ridiculous) quest - packed with <b>box fights, bug battles, and bonkers twists at every turn</b>. The artwork is vibrant, alive, detailed in all the right places, and still bursting with energy and motion. <b>Hilarious, irreverent, and endlessly charming</b> - <i>Unfairies</i> is <b>everything you want in a graphic novel</b> and more. We loved every page.
