Ask KOer, I think he's the resident Gaiman expert.

He wrote a book with Terry Pratchett that I've been meaning to read but I've yet to read any of his stuff.

Actually, I've only read his Sandman stuff and the Stardust novel. He's also written some movies, such as Mirrormask.

If you're talking about Good Omens you better fucking read it, it's brilliant.

I am reading it! It's good but I like Pratchett's solo stuff better.

In my speech class Monday someone did their prose reading from that novel. I quite enjoyed it!

I just watched Stardust, and I liked it very much.  My friend at the video store said the book is better, and I loved Good Omens, so it's on my to do list.

the book is so, so, so much better. The movie was chill, but the book had a better quality and feeling about it.

I thought the movie had a really cool Princess Bride type of feel to it.  I could tell there were a lot of story lines and details that were being worked around, though.

I should get back into the NYC and Queens library systems soon enough.
