Hmm. I did not like this one quite so much. A filler volume in some ways, like Fables and Reflections, but one which I just didn't find as engaging. Cluracan is perhaps my favourite character in it; he may be a fairy, but he's definitely an Irish fairy. Gaiman's obviously either spent quite a bit of time in Ireland, or he's studied the speech patterns of someone Irish a bit, but despite the occasional twee, I think he captured us pretty well (I know a couple of real life versions of Cluracan, yes I do). And his story provided a nice little parallel with a couple of issues regarding Church/State relations that have occurred over the centuries *g*.
