It's four separate novellas (i'll call them short stories). In a lot of ways they're off key with kings traditional works. However, three of the stories went on to be adapted as major motion pictures (including Stand by Me).

My friend, Roy Kesey, will write your socks off. Or will make you love him. Or will ask you to pull out your hair. And you will do it.

This book was a long time coming, originally slated for release over a year ago, but this adaptation of a short story by Neil Gaiman is worth the wait. If you've liked Michael Zulli's adaptations of Mr Gaiman's writing in the past... This book was a long time coming, originally slated for release over a year ago, but this adaptation of a short story by Neil Gaiman is worth the wait. If you've liked Michael Zulli's adaptations of Mr Gaiman's writing in the past, then you're sure to like this. The story, also available in Fragile Things, centers around a "true story", in so much as the characters are ostensibly Mr Gaiman and some of his friends. These friends are obliged to entertain an acquaintance, and ask him along to the theatre and sushi. The theatre doesn't pan out, so instead they go to a circus held in underground caverns in London. While there, the cheesy stage-show develops into a very real threat, and a member of their party never returns... The rich illustration style of Michael Zulli compliments this dark tale well. A visual feast, as well as a story-telling treat.
