To give him his full title: Neil Gaiman, Architect of Worlds, Svengali of Plot, Shaman of Character, Exploder of Cliche, Master Craftsman of Style, Dreamer, Laureate of the Republic of Letters
Beyond all the borders that divide us, there is a place of infinite possibilities and pure magic. I think of Neil Gaiman as a writer who wears the key to that land around his neck - the key to Storyland
Gaiman is, simply put, a treasure-house of story
A god in the universe of story
A tonic for these turbulent times * Irish Times *
Much too clever to be caught in the net of a single interpretation
Intimate, erudite and illuminating
While we might come to his writing for gods and monsters, actually all human life is here * Independent *
