I like Neil Gaiman but God is pushing....pushing it way beyond the limit.I would never call another man god...he's not even that good to begin with."

Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite writers ever. Sandman (one of my favorite comics ever, and incredibly well-written), American Gods, Neverwhere, Anansi Boys... all amazing. And if you haven't read it, go out and buy Good Omens by him and Terry Pratchett. One of my favorite books of all time. If Neil Gaiman isn't a God, he's pretty much as close as a man can get.

@Vance: Have you ever even read anything he's written?

Good Omens is a great book!!!

"Good Omens is a great book!!!"

I recommend Good Omens to anyone who can read. I have owned 3 or 4 copies, because every time I lend one out I never get it back. Can't say I blame my friends. It is a very good book.

lol nice

His work on Eternals and Marvel 1602 were also pretty good, IMO. 1602 didn't get enough love. Nothing near Sandman, but still good reads.

Good lord VA, it twas a joketh.

Taketh the sticth outh ur arse"

If people can consider Stan Lee and Jack Kirby "gods", Neil Gaiman is easily in the pantheon. And yes, you really should read Sandman to get a feel of how good he is. If Stardust is the only thing Gaiman-related that you have read, you really have no feel for what an awesome story-teller he is.

If you don't get what one has to do with the other, then nobody here can help you.  Honestly, some of you guys amaze me.

By the way Aztek, all things Stardust are based on the novel."

Read it, you won't regret it.

I love Neil Gaiman's run on Eteranls:

Alright...

I went to Neil Gaiman's site and read the "Cthulue story" or something similar to that. I gotta say I was pleasantly surprised.

Ill state again Neil Gaiman...ROCKS

I wanted to bump this to do a spoiler free Review of THE GRAVEYARD BOOK

The book was pure enjoyment for me, read it at home and mostly at work when work had died down. It may have started out a little bit corny but it kept me hooked from the moment they introduced Silas and the Sleer. At times I couldnt put it down and even tho it was a shorter book than im used to (300 not including the Words from Neil). And the idea of Bod was just awesome how he is what he is, and why he cannot do certain things. The book in itself was a mix of Suspence, and a thriller with a little bit of kid like story but thats only with some of the instances.

And the characters were AWESOME, Bod was outshined in my eyes by a number of the supporting characters in the book especially Miss Luescu. The revelation in one little part of the book about Miss Lupescu just slapped me in the face at "WHAT SHE IS A WHAT?" (people who look at her name closly will get it).

Alot of the book was more "Dont trust what your eyes show you" kind of feel to it and I LOVE these kinds of books. The concept of JOAT(abb of something i shall not reveal u must read it) was just superb. Reminded me alot of LAS lmao but it still was an intrigueing book.

MUCH Props to our man Neil, he is a genius when it comes to books and I shall be reading many more of his novels now. I Recommend this as A

BUY!! BUY THIS BOOK if you are any fan of Neil Gaiman BUY THIS F@#KING BOOK!!!

You seriously have problems lmao"

Loved Gaiman's first issue of "Whatever happened to the caped crusader?"

Loved Whatever happened to the caped crusader, a new classic that is a great analysis of batman as a character through this various years

I wish to worship at the Church of Gaiman. I'm more familiar with his work in comics but the novels that I've read are amazing.

I am ashamed to say that I have yet to read any Gaiman novel but I've read a lot of his comics work and everything has been amazing

Nothing wrong with that, I never read any of his novels until I got addicted to Sandman. You have to start somewhere right?

I have to say he's a great writer
