ES:

Interesante colección de historias de suspense o terror muy intensa. Como siempre Gaiman busca más allá de lo convencional y consigue crear sensaciones de mal estar, suspense y terror con maestría. Sí que es cierto que me ha gustado más la primera mitad que la segunda...pero yo lo recomendaría para aquellas personas que quieren adentrarse en el terror o quieren probar con historias poco convencionales.


EN:
I love Neil Gaiman as an author and I love how he conjures stories out of the places you least expect. He goes beyond the rules and expands them. However, I only encountered him in novel form, not short stories and I have to say that I really liked to explore him in that format with this. 
It is true I like the first half more than the second half, but I have to applaud how atmospheric this stories were and how masterfully ignited horror through eerie, surreal stories.

A wonderful collection of tales that I keep going back to. Funny, dark, sexy, scary. Everything you could want from a short story collection.
