Spiritwalk

The long-awaited sequel to Moonheart returns to those magical urban streets and to the dense forests of the fantasy world that lies just a heartbeat beyond them. Tamson house is a mysterious place in the center of modern Ottawa, with a wild garden which is actually a Gateway into a mystical Otherworld.

CHARLES DE LINT lives in Ottawa, Canada. His website is at charlesdelint.com.

“A rich and believable blend. [de Lint] again displays his talent for fluid cross-world fantasy.” —Library Journal

“To discover de Lint’s writing in Spiritwalk is to be lured into a compelling world of bikers, fairies, tricksters, shamans, and secret, invisible passages to other worlds.” —Edmonton Journal

“For more than a decade, Charles de Lint has enjoyed a reputation as one of the world’s leading fantasists, thanks largely to his enchanting 1984 novel Moonheart. Now, at last, de Lint re-weaves the spell in Spiritwalk, a sequel that ranks among the spring’s top releases.... Deftly and repeatedly crosses back and forth between dimensions to create a unique tone that links familiarity with compelling foreignness. Newcomers to de Lint’s work should also note that Spiritwalk is a self-contained novel that’s firmly linked to Moonheart, but can easily be enjoyed on its own.” —Toronto Star

“Deftly blends native American and Celtic folklore, classic good versus- evil conflicts, and contemporary elements with tender human moments.” —Booklist
