Tapping the Dream Tree (2003)

I've always loved Charles de Lint since I read a story by him, about a man and the tree from his childhood. I don't remember all the details, as you can clearly tell (its been maybe... 10-13 years since I read it), but I remember the feeling that I had when I read the story and it was a warm feel...

The Ivory and the Horn (1996)

Από τα τρία βιβλία του Τσαρλς Ντε Λιντ που έχουν μεταφραστεί στα ελληνικά, στην βιβλιοθήκη μου ανήκει μόνο η συλλογή διηγημάτων Οι πύλες των ονείρων, που μόλις τελείωσα. Δεν είναι καν στα δέκα πιο πολυδιαβασμένα έργα του και κατά κάποιο τρόπο είναι το έκτο βιβλίο της γνωστής σειράς Newford, η οπο...

Someplace to Be Flying (2005)

This was the first Charles de Lint novel that I had ever read, and it's an interesting place to start. I had honestly never even heard of the author before. Strange, considering that he's been writing this Newford series for nearly two decades...and it's a travesty that none of my fantasy-reading...

Book

Moonlight and Vines (2005)

The grimness is relentless. Although happy endings are the rule rather than the exception – or at least optimistic ones – almost every single character either is going through hell or has gone through hell. It’s nothing new with this book that the number of happy childhoods among his characters c...

Book

Trader (2005)

When I began reading Trader, I honestly wasn’t sure what to think. Most people I’ve spoken with about de Lint’s writing tell me that he’s urban fantasy, so I was waiting for werewolves lurking in the hedges or vampires tromping down the sidewalks, interspersed with more sexual encounters than one...

Forests of the Heart (2001)

[7/10]My third Newford book and probably not my last. I have not been reading them in order, but that's OK, as they can be enjoyed independently. I'm trading being more or less clueless about some of the recurring characters in order to focus on the ones particular to each novel as a stand-alone....

The Blue Girl (2006)

The Blue GirltThe Blue Girl, Written by Charles de Lint in the year of 2004. The book was published by Penguin Group in New York. Okay, now that I have the uselessness out of the way, let’s get on to the main event… the story!!! I want to find a good way of how to open this up. Well, I guess we c...

Spirits in the Wires (2004)

Before I get into Spirits in the Wires, I just have to say: one thing I generally love about De Lint books are the lady characters. I hate the phrase ~manic pixie dream girl~ in light of the derogatory way it's generally employed, but it still comes to mind — more in the sense that De Lint has a ...

Dreams Underfoot (2003)

Terri Windling's Introduction to Charles de Lint's Dreams Underfoot (1993) accurately describes the “urban magic” infusing the collection of nineteen short stories as using “the tools of myth, folklore and fantasy” to “record dreams,” mixing “ancient folklore motifs and contemporary urban charact...

The Onion Girl (2002)

I really liked this fantasy book and would recommend it, as well as Charles de Lint’s books in general, to anyone who likes modern-day fantasy, especially if they like books that are character driven and maybe a little slower-paced than other stuff on the market.Despite that, though, this particu...

Muse and Reverie (2009)

Every time I find a collection of Newford stories that I haven't yet read, it's like a bit like my birthday. Charles de Lint is one of my writing idols, and I love his take on urban fantasy.Every story in this collection is interesting and different from the next. New characters and old staples o...
