Dingo

I love de Lint, so I could never truly bad mouth any work of his, but Dingo was a little below my expectations. It seemed juvenille - maybe just aimed at a younger crowd? Typical de Lint style and content, but a little watered down. It was a quick read, though, so if you need a de Lint fix but don't have time for anything a little more far reaching, Dingo would be it.

Once again another wonderfully written story by Charles De Lint. I have to say I'm never disappointed when I read any of his books and I've been reading them for years. It doesn't matter if they were written for kids or adults they're all great. I recommend him to everyone, once you start you can't stop. The characters are just wonderful, you fall in love the moment you meet them, the locations are magic. I love how he describes and manages the meld the cross over from fantasy to reality, the blend is perfect, seamless. You don't know where one begins and the other ends. I catch myself wondering more about the things I encounter and can't explain and think, if only... You won't be disappointed with any of his books, you'll enjoy them for a long time.
