World Fantasy Award: Best Collection nominee (1996).

The Ivory and the Horn: A Newford Collection

Among Charles de Lint's most beloved creations is the northern city of Newford, a place touched by deep magic – and the setting for novels like The Onion Girl and story collections like Dreams Underfoot. Now, with the Orb publication of The Ivory and the Horn, all four of the Newford story collections are returned to print. Here, on the streets of Newford, is the magic that hovers at the edge of everyday life.
