Of the two Gaiman books that I've have read so far I enjoyed this one over the other. The story was easy to read and simple. Where the other book, The Graveyard Book, I had to keep coming back to it.

I will write a short review but I'm going to discuss the book with my book club first.

I read this book in one sitting just trying to get it over with because it was so scary. I had to have closer so I could put it down without it haunting me. The story is an original which I give the author total credit for and the magic was just expected, like it totally belonged there. The writing was stellar but I give it two stars for the creep factor. The incident with his Dad went way too far in my book.
