But the collection also boasts lush prose, a lack of irony and a winning faith in the enchantment of stories." [Starred review] "One delight after another." Publisher's noteA collection of more than twenty-five short fictional works includes a novella featuring the hero from his best-selling American Gods, in a volume that follows a theme of the intersections between life and death, perception and reality, and darkness and light. AnnotationNeil Gaiman follows up his bestselling 2005 novel, ANANSI BOYS, with this collection of poems and short prose culled from the same imaginative territory as much of his work: a mix of modern popular culture, myth, and the tropes of sci-fi and horror. A story that turns the months of the year into characters will remind readers of his Sandman comic series. The incarnation of a Norse god (and the main character of Gaiman's novel AMERICAN GODS) shows up in another story. The motley collection is not always polished, but the many people who have been enchanted by Gaiman's bewitching imagination will relish these dark gems.
