Critical Praise

“Everything that endears Gaiman to his legions of fans is on display…Full of all manner of witches and monsters and things that creep in the night, this collection will thoroughly satisfy faithful fans and win new ones --- if there’s anyone out there left unconverted.”

—Kirkus Reviews

“A prodigiously imaginative collection…The best of these clever fantasy metafictions explore the mysteries of artistic inspiration.”

—New York Times Book Review, Editor's Choice on FRAGILE THINGS

“A writer to make readers rejoice…[Gaiman’s] work combines the imagination of H. G. Wells, the eeerie atmosphere of H. P. Lovecraft, and the droll wit of P. G. Wodehouse…He can make readers’ blood run to ice or make them laugh out loud.”

—Minneapolis Star Tribune on FRAGILE THINGS
