Dreams Underfoot is Charles De Lint’s first collection of short stories, published in 1993, and is a wonderful introduction to Charles De Lint’s city Newford and his major characters. This collection contains 19 short stories: from his major character Jilly who is a painter constantly chasing after the faeries living in the city, to Geordie the fiddle-playing busker who has his own magical encounters, and to a woman named Angel who helps anyone on the streets from runaways to magical creatures.
This collection of short stories falls under Urban Fantasy, and is a wonderful introduction for anyone trying to find a new author without committing time to a whole entire novel.
