In response to Sounds like a book for my library posted by jerrib:Hi Jerri,
Yes, this books is suitable for young teenagers though they might find the references to Fairies a little difficult. It's a great book to discuss. Mr. de Lint does have some books he writes for young teenagers like _The Riddle of the Wren_.

In response to Re: Re: Re: Sounds like a book for my library posted by Freedomstar:I've taken a break from reading it at the moment, though I didn't want to put the book down. The elements of the story are so finely woven I find myself enamored with it, though it was a slow start getting into it.
The characters seem so real, the movement from fantasy to reality, fluid. As I read it I enjoy the written word, and wish I could write like Charles de Lint.
Thanks for introducing this book. Your review is right on!
