This is another collection of short stories and poems by one of the best short story writers in the English language. It's Neil Gaiman: what more could you want?

It may just be that what you (maybe unconsciously) want out of a short story and what Gaiman provides a bit different. For me, I find that whereas I consider a mixed short story collection good if I like 50% of the stories, with Gaiman, it's approaching 100%. You might also like 50% of the mixed collection, but a mostly different 50%.

That might be it. A good point to ponder.
