Just my fourth book of the year and I already know this one will be on this year’s list of my favorites!

In this collection of de Lint’s stories he asked his fans to pick their favorites (and somehow I didn’t know about it). Some of the stories I don’t think I’ve read before, some I haven’t read for many years, and others it was like coming home to reread them. There are stories like “Laughter in the Leaves” and “The Badger in the Bag” that are about Meran and Cerin when they first got together.

Great way of reading some of the more obscurely published stories from way back as well as meeting up with old Newford friends. An absolute pleasure to read from a lovely author. It is a real priviledge to be able to tell him what a wonderful job he is doing of keeping a little magic in the world.
