Reviews
“He shows that, far from being mere escapism, contemporary fantasy can be the deep mythic literature of our time.” —Fantasy and Science Fiction
“Charles de Lint is a folksinger as well as a writer and it is this voice we hear...both new and old, lyric, longing, touched by magic.” —Jane Yolen
“A finely textured song of a tale of power, wonder, and suspense. Keenly felt, satisfying, fully realized, its essence lingers when the reading's done.” —Roger Zelazny
“Mr. de Lint's handling of ancient folklore to weave into an entirely new pattern has never, to my knowledge, been equalled.” —Andre Norton
“For more than a decade, Charles de Lint has enjoyed a reputation as one of the world's leading fantasists, thanks largely to his enchanting 1984 novel Moonheart.” —Toronto Star
