Customer Reviews
Great book
I had never read Gaiman before this. I have an immediate revulsion to any media people are committed to saying “oh you’ll loooooove this!” So I avoided him. Upon reading the first story, we’ll do it for you wholesale, I was very sad. Sad I had wasted so much of my life without this author. Excellent book, I breezed through 200 pages without realizing
Brilliant Storyteller
Gaiman weaves stories in such a way that even when telling stories of known characters by other authors they feel new, familiar, and strangely unique. This collection shows off his incredible storytelling abilities as a way of introduction to those who have never read his books and and as a welcomed return to those of us who already love his writing.
