What to expect
Two lives. Two souls. One miracle.
Max Trader is a luthier, a maker of guitars. Johnny Devlin is chronically unemployed. Max is solitary, quiet, responsible. Johnny is a lady-killer, a drunk, a charming loser.
When they inexplicably wake up in each other’s bodies, Johnny gleefully moves into Max’s comfortable and stable existence, leaving Max to pick up the pieces of a life he had no part in breaking.
Penniless, friendless, homeless, Max begins a journey that will take him beyond the streets of the city to an otherworld of dreams and spirits, where he must confront both the unscrupulous Johnny Devlin and his own deepest fears.
Critics Review
“A master of urban fantasy returns with one of his finest works…De Lint builds his story from a succession of well-chosen and well-expressed details…Wholly engaging.”
“Outstanding…It is hard to imagine urban fantasy done with greater skill, even by de Lint himself.”
