I'm a Neil Gaiman virgin, so my first time has been captivating! I love the weirdness, the unexpectedness, the exotic-ness. I normally dislike short stories, preferring full length novels for the proper development of depth, character, etc. But this collection, apart from a couple of maybes, is full of mysterious and disturbing and compelling people, situations, and concepts. Couldn't put it down! And after finishing it, I went back to the intro where he gives the background of each story - more interesting after having read the stories.
