EYES LIKE LEAVES Charles de Lint 1st HC LIMITED/SIGNED HIGH FANTASY NOVEL fine

Description: EYES LIKE LEAVES by Charles de Lint, Dust jacket by Mike Dringenberg. Burton, MI; Subterranean Press; 2010. 1st edition hardcover. OUT OF PRINT. ISBN: 978-1-59606-282-5. Magic is already fading in the Green Isles, but it’s still a time when myths walk the world and the children of the ancient gods are engaged in one final confrontation. But when legendary creatures wage war, it’s the ordinary people who suffer the consequences--unless they, themselves, can find a way to bring an end to the hostilities. The trouble is, not all of them are able to pick a side. Eyes Like Leaves was written in the days of Moonheart and Charles de Lint’s other high fantasy novels. The tale slept like a long-forgotten lover until he recently chose to revisit (and polish) this never-before-published gem. Limited: Signed hardcover edition. From Publishers Weekly: "World Fantasy Award–winner de Lint dusts off an enchanting epic fantasy written in 1980 but never published. The result is a delightful old-fashioned group quest, and though it occasionally lacks the older de Lint’s graceful skill with language, even his nascent poetic style evokes beautiful imagery." From Library Journal: “This traditional fantasy…bears de Lint’s characteristically lyrical prose and hypnotic storytelling. Filled with Celtic lore and wonderfully drawn characters, this standalone epic should please the author’s many fans and lovers of medieval fantasy.” From Booklist: “This is classic high fantasy, written and revised by a master, unpublished when first completed some 30 years ago because de Lint decided to focus on contemporary fantasy stories and let it languish. It is a must for de Lint completists and, actually, for all high-fantasy and folkloristic fiction fans.” From Fantasy Literature: "Eyes Like Leaves is well-paced, and the action scenes flash with energy. Charles de Lint shows signs of the bardic gift in his ability to make scenes come alive..." LIMITED (unnumbered) trade hardcover SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. Fine in fine dj. OUT OF PRINT.
