    Chesil, I read and loved A Month In The Country too, but have always been unable to find anything else by him. I've just discovered his biography, The Last Englishman, is available on Kindle so I've put it on my wishlist. It said in the synopsis that he was one of the funniest English writers of all time. I'm sure you'll enjoy reading them all (I'm jealous :D )

    :P

     

    I think you really don't like A Game of Thrones. Either that or you don't want to read The Graveyard. :)

     

    Wrong ....and wrong!! :D But it IS a long book, I'm halfway through which is the equivilent of a normal size book :P And I'm very much looking forward to The Graveyard, I'm just having a real reading go-slow at the moment.

     

     

    .....whose writing I was introduced to by THAT person fron NZ.

      :giggle2:

    Hope you enjoy Stardust, Muggles. It's a delightful story (for some reason I thought you'd read it already ....now who's having confused moments???? )

    Thanks for sharing that Chrissy. Good short stories are hard to find but I thought he caught the mood of the story very well, Neil Gaiman is always rather dark.

     

    Hmmm, American Gods was the novel that I liked the least of his. All of the other books I loved, especially "The Graveyard", it was a great, great, story and the ending had me choked up.

     

    Still getting there Muggles :blush:

     

     Of course at my age many things confuse me. :)

    I've never heard such rubbish!!  :D
