I love Neil Gaiman's modern-day fairy tales. The Ocean at the End of the Lane tells the story of a middle-aged man who comes back to his old neighborhood and remembers a pretty unbelievable part of his childhood.

Gaiman's story is a pretty good story about the troubles of growing up and losing the things that were precious to us as kids.

This was a great read, I had trouble putting it down from the second I picked it up.
