Mr. Gaiman never fails to delight and destroy us with each story and this collection of dark hopes and wild desires makes that simple fact ever more plain.

I feel like a traitor to Gaiman for only rating this 3 stars. He really is one of my favourite authors, I just found this Audiobook a little hard to follow.

Many of these stories were quite good, and it was overall worth the read, but some were pretty meh. The format was nice, as it was easy to designate a smaller amount of time to a full story than a chapter sometimes is.

Gaiman is a master storyteller, even the shortest stories he can fill them with depth and complexity.

some of the stories were a bit unsettling and disturbing.
