De Lint is one of those writers everyone raves about and tells you that you WILL love them. Maybe it's a case of too much hype? sprite´s last blog post: readathon: hour 11

Nice review! I've been reading some Newford stories from a Charkes de Lint collection, The Ivory and the Horn. They're good. Alessandra´s last blog post: Book Review: Install

Great review - I'm going to be listening to this book next... it's my first de Lint; hopefully I won't find it too boggy in the middle. Fyrefly's last blog post: Patrick Rothfuss - The Name of the Wind

I hope you do continue t read his novels as I have loved all that I have read so far. Maybe like you say it is the two you have read and the audio book option? Fingers crossed your next read is better. Rhinoa's last blog post: Toronto Photos Including Book Porn

I don't know, quite what I'm missing, but I'm hopeful with one of the books I mentioned above I'll find the one that catches my imagination. Bart's last blog post: The Sunday Salon : Reading… What’s That?

I experienced the same mild disappointment when I read my first De Lint novel earlier this year - The Onion Girl. But I blame the fact that I hadn't read any other Newford stories before, and so I wasn't familiar with the character's backgrounds, etc. I mooched The Little Country on Eva's recommendation a while ago, and I totally expect to fall in love with that one. I do hope your next De Lint does it for you! Nymeth's last blog post: The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

How about trying The Little Country next? That's my favourite de Lint so far! (I just started reading him recently) Eva's last blog post: My First California Bookpile
