Neil Gaiman’s
non-fiction is as accomplished and fascinating as his stories and graphic
novels and here is a collection of the best speeches (commencement and
otherwise), essays and forwards he has written to date.
Every piece contains
Gaiman’s unique view of the world from his days as a journalist interviewing an
unknown Terry Pratchett to the ‘door falls off a plane incident’ whilst
travelling with Diana Wynn Jones and why you should never ever give your ten year
old daughter a Stephen King novel. Gaiman’s voice echoes in your head as you
read, making each piece of advice, each story, each warning seem very personal.
