(3) YA Renowned as a writer of contemporary urban fantasy for adults, De Lint sometimes features younger protagonists in his short stories, sixteen of which are gathered in this strong collection. Vampires, fairies, trolls, and ghosts all make appearances, but the stories are most effecting when they center on the longings of the human--or not-quite-human--heart.
