In the deft hands of Neil Gaiman, magic is no mere illusion... and anything is possible. In this, Gaiman's first book of short stories, his imagination and supreme artistry transform a mundane world into a place of terrible wonders -- a place where an old woman can purchase the Holy Grail at a thrift store, where assassins advertise their services in the Yellow Pages under ""Pest Control,"" and where a frightened young boy must barter for his life with a mean-spirited troll living beneath a bridge by the railroad tracks. Explore a new reality -- obscured by smoke and darkness, yet brilliantly tangible -- in this extraordinary collection of short works by a master prestidigitator. It will dazzle your senses, touch your heart, and haunt your dreams. Anthologies et nouvelles Fantastique Fiction Fiction de genre Fiction littéraire Horreur Magique Science-fiction Nouvelle Sincère

Let’s get something out of the way - I love Neil Gaiman’s work. I have pretty much read and listened to all his published works. Hearing him performing his stories just makes each story even better - he is without doubt a wonderful story teller.

So - Smoke and Mirrors. While I enjoyed the book, I didn’t love it as I have with the others. The stories were just not quite as interesting. Well written yes but lacking something I can’t quite put my finger on. That said, I do recommend this book for anything NG fan.

Good but not the usual excellent

disappointed compared to the other 2 Gaiman books I've read. it might be just taste. I just don't love the sex scenes but some of the stories were good they just ended too soon.
