Newford
Available From:
Among Charles de Lint's most beloved creations is the northern city of Newford, a place touched by deep magic—and the setting for novels like The Onion Girl and story collections like Dreams Underfoot. Now, with the Orb publication of The Ivory and the Horn, all four of the Newford story collections are returned to print. Here, on the streets of Newford, is the magic that hovers at the edge of everyday life.
“Charles de Lint is the modern master of urban fantasy. Folktale, myth, fairy tale, dreams, urban legend–all of it adds up to pure magic in de Lint’s vivid, original world. No one does it better.” —Alice Hoffman on Charles de Lint
“In de Lint’s capable hands, modern fantasy becomes something other than escapism. It becomes folk song, the stuff of urban myth.” —The Phoenix Gazette on Charles de Lint
