The Neil Gaiman Reader: Selected Fiction by Neil Gaiman

2.0

Neil Gaiman can be a magnificent story teller (see: The Graveyard Book, Neverwhere, The Ocean at the End of the Lane), but he isn't always (see: Anansi Boys, American Gods). This collection leans heavily toward the latter category. In fact it isn't actually that he tells the stories badly, it's more that the stories are deeply troubling, and not in a good way. I wish I hadn't read them.
