Know before you read this that I am a big Gaiman fan but was disappointed with this work.
This was clearly not up to Gaiman’s usual ability. The first 100 pages were filled with so much that should have been trimmed, it was frustrating. After that, the story picked up well enough. I still wasn’t impressed with how he handled the otherworld elements but it was a nice enough read to fill the time.
2.9 stars.
