Neil Gaiman: Prince of Stories
Over the past twenty years, Neil Gaiman has developed into the premier fantasist of his generation, achieving that rarest of combinations – unrivaled critical respect and extraordinary commercial success. From the landmark comic book series The Sandman to novels such as American Gods, from children’s literature like Coraline to screenplays for such films as Beowulf, Gaiman’s work has garnered him an enthusiastic and fiercely loyal following.
Now, for the first time ever, Prince of Stories chronicles the history and impact of the complete works of Neil Gaiman in film, fiction, music, comic books, and beyond. Containing hours of exclusive interviews with Gaiman and conversations with his collaborators, as well as wonderful nuggets of his work such as the beginning of an unpublished novel, a rare comic and never-before-seen essay, this is a treasure trove of all things Gaiman. In addition to providing in depth information and commentary on Gaiman’s myriad works, the book also includes rare photographs, book covers, artwork, and related trivia and minutiae, making it both an insightful introduction to his work, and a true “must-have” for his ever growing legion of fans.
Neil Gaiman is one of the top ten living post-modern writers, and is a prolific creator of works of prose, poetry, film, journalism, comics, song lyrics, and drama.
Neil Gaiman is the co-author, with Terry Pratchett, of Good Omens, a novel about how the world is going to end and how we’re all going to die. Good Omens spent 17 consecutive weeks on the Sunday Times bestseller list in 1990 and has gone on to become an international bestseller.
