The Onion Girl by Charles de Lint

4.0

What an inventive author! De Lint's "urban fantasy" was a welcome surprise for me. I've read two of his books now and will be reading more. The Onion Girl, so called because she has layer after layer to be peeled away as the story progresses. There were times that I thought Jilly was just a little too good, considering what she had been through - but then, I really am a cynic at heart. Good reading, and definitely a new idea for me.
