"The Green Man Review" serves as a critic periodical on arts and culture, especially those with a little enchantment in them. to quote, GMR "provides in-depth reviews of books, printed and audio, in fiction of all sorts, non-fiction , music lore, and even quite a bit of history." And they have quite a staff, archive, and workplace handling their business as well. As stated on the site, "There's a fiddling jack, a Sidhe archivist/librarian, and a changeling are also on staff. Our present office has a wooden handle on the street door to accommodate the fey, and we've developed a back-up set of tunes in MP3 to deal with the pixies who have migrated online and occasionally try to massacre our server. We share our lease with a troll who lives under the bridge out back. Naturally, the Fair Folk have adapted themselves to industrial vacuum cleaners, street noise and water coolers, although they still demand fresh cream and cake set out on the alley step every night. And we have not only a Welsh dragon who serves as a set of very impressive living bagpipes, and a Celtic goddess who plays a mean set of small pipes. And did I mention the Neverending Session which as far as we know has been going on continually somewhere in the GMR building for centuries now? Not to mention Béla, the violinist who insists he's from the Ottoman Empire..."
