Neil Gaiman

Harper Perennial, 2003

Twilight of the gods
American Gods is written by famed comics writer Neil Gaiman, best known for his work on the Sandman comics and his occassional collaborations with Terry Pratchet. However, I know him best as the translator for Miyazaki's film Princess Mononoke, easily one of my ...

Odd and the Frost Giants

Neil Gaiman

HarperCollins, 2009

A delightful, quick read
I am a Neil Gaiman fan- both of his adult and child works. I loved The Graveyard Book and Coraline and this book did not disappoint. The story is fascinating, vibrant, and delightful. I enjoyed Odd and his adventure imbued with beautiful imagery.

The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Douglas Adams

Del Rey, 2002

Sure laughter
A master piece of a real genious of critical, nonsense comedy. Douglas Adams makes you laugh from the beggining to the very end with extraordinary characters and situations that you will definitely identify yourself with.

Neverwhere: A Novel

Neil Gaiman

Harper Perennial, 2003

Well done!
Neil Gaiman is a brilliant writer. This is the 4th book I have read by him and I have enjoyed every one. Neverwhere is a story about a man named Richard who lives a normal life in London. He meets a girl named Door and his world gets completely turned upside down. ...

Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch

Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett

Harper Paperbacks, 2007

A Tongue-in Cheek Look at the Apocalypse
The apocalyptic found its way into Christianity early, which makes sense considering the persecutions of early Christians, and foremost among the texts of Christian apocalyptic thinking is the book of Revelations. But it's also true that this book has long been ...

Stardust

Neil Gaiman

HarperTeen, 2009

Interesting
I read this book both before and after the movie of the same name came out. Both of which I loved, as well as a few other books by this same author. Mirrormask was my favorite but not by far, all of the books I have read by this author have been simply fantastic. I ...

The Sandman Vol. 1: Preludes and Nocturnes

Neil Gaiman

Vertigo, 1993

Amazing start to an amazing series
The Sandman series is a remarkable set of graphic novels for adult readers. "Preludes and Nocturnes" sets the stage for the series in Neil Gaiman's uniquely creative style. In addition to his own expansive imagination, he draws upon a wide range of mythological ...

The Sandman Vol. 2: The Doll's House

Neil Gaiman, Malcolm Jones III, ...

Vertigo, 1991

In which Gaiman expands his world with scope, imagination, wonder, and horror (4½ stars)
Having established the basis for his world in The Sandman Vol. 1: Preludes and Nocturnes, Gaiman starts to stretch his wings a little, introducing us to more inhabitants of Morpheus's strange world, including some of his siblings, his servants (of a sort), and waking ...

The Graveyard Book

Neil Gaiman

HarperCollins, 2008

A wonderful, nuanced work
The Graveyard Book is my first Neil Gaiman book, and I'm definitely planning on reading more. I'd heard a lot of praise of this book, but it still didn't prepare me for the elegance of his style. Though I liked the drawings, the real charm of this book is the ...

The Sandman Vol. 3: Dream Country

Neil Gaiman, Malcolm Jones III, ...

Vertigo, 1991

In which Gaiman plays with shorter tales to great effect
Taking a break after the sweeping grandeur of The Sandman Vol. 2: The Doll's House, Gaiman creates what is essentially a short story collection, allowing him to play with different ideas and themes within the boundaries of his intricate mythology. As with any short ...

The Sandman Vol. 8: Worlds' End

Neil Gaiman, Stephen King

Vertigo, 1995

A breath before the end...
In which Gaiman takes a breath before entering the inevitable final act of The Sandman. At first glance, World's End is another series of short stories, a la The Sandman Vol. 3: Dream Country and The Sandman Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections, albeit one with a stronger ...

Batman: Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader? (Deluxe Edition)

Neil Gaiman

DC Comics, 2009

Batman is dead but his legend never will be,
To put it simply this is a brilliant story and this edition has wonderful extras like a Batman B/W short story and others. I will say if you need a linear story over a legend you may not enjoy it as much.

The Sandman Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections

Neil Gaiman

Vertigo, 1994

Quite possibly the hieght of the series
First off, if you aren't familiar with the Sandman series yet, I'd have to recommend the first(The Sandman Vol. 1: Preludes and Nocturnes) or second(The Sandman Vol. 2: The Doll's House) volume for an introduction to the universe and Gaiman's writing. Still, this ...
