I quite like the Graveyard Book + some of the comics, and very much enjoyed Coraline! However I just couldn't get into American Gods, so it's a bit hit & miss with him really.. I thought about trying Anansi Boys next but that seems to be something to do with American Gods so maybe I won't bother.. Good Omens seems good!

The man has written SO much tho, I haven't read half of it.

I'm reading The Sandman comics and I love it ! I also recently read Neverwhere and I found it amazing. How does one person thing about such bizarre things? That and being in London helps to imagine everything happening in a more realistic perspective - everything happens in London in the book ! I have American Gods and Anansi Boys here to read next. My boyfriend recommended them to me, so we'll see. I also read Coraline and I found it so creepy - in the good way !

OH ! And I got The Sandman: The Dream Hunters this Christmas and I adore the way Gaiman wrote it. It's based on a simple japanese story about a fox and a monk but the twists and turns Gaiman gives the story is just amazing. And, of course, the illustrations by Yoshitaka Amano are also a plus (a BIG one).

I love how disturbing and ironic Neil Gaiman's writting is and how he flows from one thing to another. I can't wait to read more !

LOVE him and all he writes, though American Gods was heavier to get through.  I looooove the Sandman!

I can't help but imagine him as The Sandman himself xD

Ooooh me! I love his short story collections the most, but started with the entire Sandman series.

My Dad and I are huge Terry Pratchett fans too, so Good Omens was just...eee... for me xD

I love his work, and reccomend him and lend out books any chance I get. xD

I really enjoy his work, a couple of my favorites are Stardust, Coraline and his collaboration with Terry Pratchett Good Omens.  I have quite a few books by him.  I've heard nothing but good things about the Sandman series, but I've never been able to read them!    I hope one of these days I can.

I have enjoyed most of Neil Gaiman's work. My favorites are Anansi Boys (one of my all-time favorites) and The Graveyard Book. Both are fantastic! I also enjoyed Stardust and Neverwhere quite a bit. Good Omens was okay, some parts I thoroughly enjoyed, while others I didn't. I really, really didn't like American Gods, nor did I like Coraline very much.

If you like reading his books, I highly, HIGHLY recommend listening to his audiobooks. A lot of them are read by Neil Gaiman himself and he does a beautiful job and really brings the stories to life.
