Review of 'Neil Gaiman Reader' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

This is a showcase of Gaiman's short stories from 1984 – 2018, as well as a couple excerpts from longer books. If you're unfamiliar with his work it's a great overview of the breadth of his fiction. If you're already a big Neil Gaiman fan you've probably read most of these stories in his other collections, but this is still a great compilation of some of his best stories. There are a couple great follow-ups from some of his other books; two more stories about Shadow Moon that are set after American Gods, and a story about the Marquis de Carabas from Neverwhere.
