Description:
Praise for Promises to Keep "De Lint returns to Newford and Jilly Coppercorn's youth.... [D]e Lint presents Jilly's choices, the memories impelling them, and the solution to the riddle of Donna in his characteristic powerful yet intimate style. Jilly's reader friends, including those first meeting her, will be more than delighted." -- Booklist "Lucid writing and well-realized characters." -- Publishers Weekly "If you are already familiar with Newford's residents, Promises to Keep provides a lovely glimpse into their past, and how they came to know one another. Readers new to de Lint's work will find this book an easy introduction to the magical world of Newford. The beautiful cover art was done by Mike Dringenberg, well-known for his work on Neil Gaiman's Sandman ." -- Journal of Mythic Arts "In his novella Promises to Keep Charles de Lint returns to the early days of one of his most beloved Newford characters, Jilly Coppercorn. For fans this will be a delight well worth seeking out, but teen readers who have a chance to read it should not pass it up...a classic peek into the wonder that is Newford." -- Bookslut "It's poignant, it's moving, it makes you want to be a better person, and all in all, it's pure de Lint." -- SF Site "It is perfect for those looking for lots of realism in their fantasy, but with a more than a touch of the magical." -- Layers of Thought "Beautifully written." -- Quill and Ink "A clear and stunning view revealing the secrets of Newford." -- Fresh Fiction
