Helpful Score: 1


Fluffy for Gaiman, but enjoyable nonetheless. The writing style is very simple and takes a few pages to get used to. I hate to say it (I really do) but I think the movie version of this book improved upon it. I read the book recently, liked it, and then HAD to see the movie. What a shame that Captain Shakespeare wasn't a Gaiman creation! Overall, though, this book is syrupy sweet, fun to read, and no need to analyze...it is what it is...and what it is is great. A fairy tale for adults is an apt description.
