Jack of Kinrowan
An acknowledged classic of contemporary fantasy, Jack of Kinrowan brings together in one volume Charles de Lint's rollicking saga of wild faerie magic on the streets of the city.

Jack, the Giant Killer
A faceless gang of bikers on Wild Hunt through the streets of present-day Ottawa hurtles young Jacky Rowan across the threshold into the perilous land of Faerie. There, to her dismay, she is hailed as the Jack of Kinrowan, a once-and-future trickster hero whose lot is to save the Elven Courts from unimaginable evil.

Drink Down the Moon
Once the realm of Faerie drew its power from the Moon herself. But now a ghastly creature has stolen that power and enslaved the Fair Folk--and Jacky Rowan herself. Only Johnny Faw, a hadsome fiddler unaware of his magical gifts, has the power to set them free.

Charles de Lintpioneered the urban fantasy genre with critically acclaimed novels and stories set in and around the imaginary modern North American city of Newford:The Onion Girl,Moonheart,The Ivory and the Horn, and the collectionMoonlight and Vines, for which he won the World Fantasy Award. Among de Lint's many other novels areMulengro,Into the Green, andThe Little Country.

There is no better writer now than Charles de Lint at bringing out the magic in contemporary life....The best of the post-Stephen King contemporary fantasists, the one with the clearest vision of the possibilities of magic in a modern setting. Orson Scott Card

A superb storyteller..de Lint has a flair for tales that blur the lines between the mundane world and magical reality. Library Journal

You open a de Lint story, and like the interior of a very genial Pandora's box, the atmosphere is suddenly full of deep woods and quaint city streets and a magic that's nowhere near so far removed as Middle Earth. James P. Blaylock
