Since they were introduced in the first Newford story, Timeskip, back in 1989, their friends and readers alike have been waiting for them to realize what everybody else already knows: that they belong together. But they've been more clueless about how they feel for each other than the characters in \u003ci\u003eWhen Harry Met Sally\u003c\/i\u003e. Now in \u003ci\u003eWiddershins\u003c\/i\u003e, a stand-alone novel of fairy courts set in shopping malls and the Bohemian street scene of Newford's Crowsea area, Jilly and Geordie's story is finally being told. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBefore it's over, we'll find ourselves plunged into the rancorous and sometimes violent conflict between the magical North American animal people and the more newly-arrived fairy folk. We'll watch as Jilly is held captive in a sinister world based on her own worst memories--and Geordie, attempting to help, is sent someplace even worse. And we'll be captivated by the power of love and determination to redeem ancient hatreds and heal old magics gone sour. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTo walk widdershins is to walk counterclockwise or backwards around something. It's a classic pathway into the fairy realm. It's also the way people often back slowly into the relationships that matter, the real ones that make for a life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eA June 2006 Book Sense Pick\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/12\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780765312860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e107538 \/ Widdershins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.9 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 30\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Charles De Lint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36642502213788,"sku":"9780765312860","price":20.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_424b7d77-cd47-4d03-b058-a757854f0951.jpg?v=1603854980","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/widdershins-9780765312860","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
