Acerca de esta escucha

Lily is a photojournalist in search of the “animal people” who supposedly haunt the city’s darkest slums. Hank is a slumdweller who knows the bad streets all too well. One night, in a brutal incident, their two lives collide - uptown Lily and downtown Hank, each with a quest and a role to play in the secret drama of the city’s oldest inhabitants.

For the animal people walk among us. Native Americans call them the First People, but they have never left, and they claim the city for their own.

Not only have Hank and Lily stumbled onto a secret, they’ve stumbled into a war. And in this battle for the city’s soul, nothing is quite as it appears.

I must've read this book a dozen times and this year with winter closing in and hot tea and video game weather coming on, nothing is bettee than resting my eyes while someone tells me this story all over again.

Probably my favourite book of all time

This has always been my favorite book by Charles deLint. I’ve bought so man copies over the years because I lend my book out and it never comes back. I’m thrilled the audio is available now. I really enjoyed listening to the narrators voice. Very calming and she did the different characters wonderfully. I highly recommend this author, he was writing urban fantasy before it was even a “thing”

Absolutely magical!

This is not just a book about magic. It *is* magic.
Perfectly balanced with amazing characters, I would call it the best of his books I have experienced to date (maybe 8-10). But truth be told, his characters have always enchanted me, and I would lessen any of them by lifting this novel above the rest.
I cannot recommend it highly enough, and look forward to many revisits with appropriate time in between.

Charles de Lint has been one of my favorite authors since adolescence. Now as a professional artist i love listening to his work while i paint. As i was finishing up Someplace to be Flying, i put the finishing touches on my newest piece of The Crow Girls, complete with a bag of glowing cosmic jelly beans! Thank you so much for such an amazing story…it feels like a companion to Trader, another fantastic tale that kept me company in my studio!

The Crow Girls

Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.

Charles de Lint’s Someplace to be Flying is a standalone novel from his Newford series. This tale has an avian flavor. A photojournalist is on the hunt for ‘animal’ people rumored to be in and around the Newford area. She runs into trouble and is saved by Hank who drives a taxi in the seedier part of town. They end up in the crosshairs of some dangerous and bizarre individuals trying to preserve a secret.

De Lint presents a corvid or crow mythology with a Native American angle. The narration is good with decent character distinction and smooth pacing.
