 Charles de Lint: Greenmantle (1988) Description
Greenmantle is not only a gripping thriller but also an introduction to the most profound philosophical issues in literature what stories are for and how they create us.
Greenmantle fires on all cylinders and on all levels, especially in that difficult interstice between fantasy and reality.
Greenmantle is made uncommonly vivid not only by a tightly wound plot, a modern-day setting, and a good number of well-drawn, sympathetic characters, but also by the author's rare ability to awaken in the reader a sense of knowledge and wonder about a level of latent reality that remains hidden or only half suspected.
