The FairyLoot Story
From one box of magic to a global community of readers.
Welcome to FairyLoot − where stories spark wonder and books become treasures.
What began with a single magical box has grown into a thriving global community of book lovers who celebrate the beauty of storytelling. At FairyLoot, we believe books are more than just pages. They’re portals to fantastical worlds, unforgettable adventures, and deeply felt emotions. Every edition we create is crafted with care, from stunning covers to exclusive details, all designed to make each reading experience feel truly special.
Whether you’ve been with us from the beginning or just discovered our world, we’re so glad you’re here. The next chapter awaits.
let’s talk about
How It All Started
FairyLoot began in 2016, sparked by a shared dream between Anissa, a lifelong reader, fantasy enthusiast, and creative spirit, and Michael, a tech-savvy problem solver with a gift for bringing ambitious ideas to life. They envisioned a subscription box that would celebrate the heart and soul of fantasy fiction, a carefully curated experience for readers who not only immerse themselves in compelling stories, but also cherish books as beautiful works of art.
Once Upon Our First Box
Our very first box was the Young Adult (YA) Box. A captivating new release paired with a selection of high-quality items inspired by our favourite stories and fandoms. It was crafted to surprise, enchant, and draw readers even deeper into the worlds they love. That inaugural box, packed by hand in a tiny London flat, marked the beginning of something truly extraordinary.
From our hands to your shelf
The People Who Make It Happen
What began as a two-person operation has grown into a talented team of over 35 individuals, each bringing their own expertise, creativity, and love for storytelling. From book curators and product developers to designers, social media creatives, customer care specialists and logistics pros. Every role plays a vital part in what we do.
Each FairyLoot edition is a true team effort, shaped by collaboration, imagination, and attention to detail. We’re incredibly proud of the heart and dedication our team brings to every book and box we create.
Curated with care. Designed for wonder.
The Magic Behind Every Book & Box
At FairyLoot, we believe that stories have the power to transport us to distant lands, ancient kingdoms, and impossible futures. Our mission is to bring that magic straight to your doorstep with editions that make every reading experience unforgettable.
Each month, we select a newly released fantasy title that truly excites us, then reimagine it as a FairyLoot Exclusive Edition. From stunning cover redesigns and sprayed edges to bespoke endpapers, foil details, and author bonus content, we transform every book into something entirely unique – a collectible story, beautifully told.
No Two FairyLoot Editions Are Ever the Same
We take exceptional care in tailoring each design to reflect the essence of the story it holds. Whether it’s a hidden foiled scene beneath the dust jacket, illustrated character artwork, or symbolic design flourishes, every detail is thoughtfully chosen to bring the book’s world to life.
Our editions are crafted to feel as though they were forged within the story itself and designed to evoke the setting, mood, and spirit of the narrative. These aren’t just books to read, they’re books to experience and treasure.
