~6/15/08 Miguel was working in his father's vintage record and comic book shop when a beautiful red head named Lainey and her strange dog walk into his life and change it forever.
Dingo, while well-crafted, is not as transporting as de Lint typically is. The pacing is fairly quick, in fact, I would call this slight book a novella. The Blue Girl is a more preferable entry to de Lint's YA Newford- based fiction.
Something I particularly enjoyed about this book is the Australian folklore, for Lainey and her twin are weredingoes. Making this fit right in with Justine Larbalestier's Magic and Madness books and Sandra McDonald's science fiction with Australian mysticism.
