Review:
"Sixteen short stories by the noted urban fantasist capture both the wistful sadness of epic ballads and the lingering beauty of summer dreams ... De Lint's pen is ever graceful and evocative, his heroines simultaneously earthy and evanescent."
"This is the perfect de Lint primer." ("Chronicle")
