On the border between the World and Elfland sits Bordertown, a place of half-lit neighborhoods of hidden magic, of flamboyant artists and pagan motorcycle gangs. Bordertown is a hothouse laboratory for the return of magic to the life of the World--and the return of life to magic. It's an attitude and a state of mind. It's where magic meets rock & roll. Original.

Superb Anthology of Urban Fantasy,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bordertown: Where Magic Meets Rock & Roll (Mass Market Paperback)
This is an amazing book. Windling has created a shared universe in which Faery has returned to the modern world. However, it's not all happy elves frolicking with humans. The city/cities where Faery have appeared no longer support technology really, and the elves can be right bastards. It's gritty, realistic (for fantasy), and the stories tend to be incredibly well written. This is, in my mind, a classic urban fantasy novel. If you like Delint, you'll love this.
