Please visit the magazine site (link below) and read the full review, but I just have to share the closing comments…
“If you don’t like these books, you probably shouldn’t be reading urban fantasy, because they represent some of the best the field has to offer. I still can’t quite put my finger on how Henwick has made the tropes feel so fresh. I’m just glad he has.”
This is a review by Charles de Lint, one of the godparents of Urban Fantasy. He’s one of my writing heroes. His other occupation is a professional reviewer for the Fantasy & Science Fiction magazine.
So…it was with considerable trepidation I saw the email from the magazine saying that Charles had reviewed Bite Back; both print book versions of Sleight of Hand and Hidden Trump. OMG.
I didn’t approach the magazine for a review, and hadn’t provided the books to them.
The full text of the review appears in the July issue. You can read it on the website
