Author: Will Shetterly
When Ron runs away, he ends up in Bordertown, a grim city that lies between the real world and the world of faerie, a place where elf and human gangs stalk the streets side by side, and where magic works better than technology. If the city doesn't kill him, it just may teach him what it is to be human.

A fun, fast-paced urban fantasy about a human teenager (his only asset: way too much attitude) who arrives in Bordertown, the city near the elusive boundary of Elfland, falls in with a mixed gang of humans, elves and 'halfies,' becomes involved in elvish politics, finds work in a wonderful bookstore (so nice to read a book set in the kind of quirky neighborhood bookstore that no Borders or B&N can ever compare with!), and learns some hard lessons about misplaced emotions: trust, anger, grief, affection...
