COMMUNITY REVIEWS
some great, some not so great

In the introduction, Gaiman comments that one doesn't always equally like each story in a collection, and that is part of the value. that certainly held true here. The first story (four and twenty blackbirds) it is by far the weakest one and should not set your expectations for this collection . "Chivalry" and "Sunbird" were my favorites.
I listened to this as an audiobook (check "ebooks and eaudio" part of catalog). It is wonderfully read by Neil Gaiman himself.
