Dream Harder, Dream True
Aug. 17th, 2008 03:02 pm Been reading lots of Charles De Lint lately and just let me say, that man is wonderful to read. In a lot of ways, it feels like reading Mercedes Lackey. Lots of great world-building and thought-provoking actions.
My favorite is Forests of the Heart. There is so much folklore involved, everything from the gentry to the Crow Girls who disguise themselves as spunky teenage girls, complete with leather boots and striped knee socks when they aren't native american crow spirits. Oh, and they love sugar. There isn't a single scene without candy involved with them.
There are irish fairies and mexican spirits mixed with crazy wolves, mentally suspect coyotes, and even a girl born from a computer! In other words, it's a wonderful book. I recommend it to any big readers out there.
No somos los lobos
no somos los perros
somos los cadejos
caejos verdaderos!
