Apollo reviewed The Blue Girl (Firebird) by Charles de Lint

True to Form

3 stars

It had been a long while since I last read a Charles de Lint novel, but this was exactly the sort of story I expected. It was comforting to be immersed again in Newford, his imagined city where the best of his stories are set. This wasn't among those best stories, but this YA urban fantasy was a fun read.
