Unnatural Creatures [Paperback]

I am loving these stories !

Llegó en excelentes condiciones, las ilustraciones son adecuadas y la selección de cuentos es de lo mejor del género fantástico. Lo recomiendo muchísimo.

What a fun compendium of fantasy short stories, selected by one of the masters of the genre, Neil Gaiman himself (who also submits a great little tale). What sets this selection apart from so many others is what it's not: It's NOT dark, gritty, "urban" nor a "paranormal romance". Not that there's anything wrong with those, but it's refreshing to read something not aimed at kids which gets outside those current "hot trends". Now, I said "not aimed at kids' but certainly Middle-schoolers and even advanced grade school readers will enjoy this collection, and a parent could supply this without a qualm to such. You have undoubtedly read a couple before, and that's fine as there are many other gems here which have not seen the light of day since first published (I love the Edith Nesbit selection!), others which are recent, and two that are new here. Now, I did say the tales weren't dark & gritty. But come-on, Neil selected them, so yes, they are sometimes more than a little macabre & weird. And what's cool is that your purchase will help nonprofit 826DC, which fosters student writing skills. Fell good by buying, feel better while reading!

Good condition

Ótima seleção de narrativas literárias feitas por Neil Gaiman. Narrativas de fácil leitura e bastante envolventes. Vale muito apena ter este livro na estante.
