用户评论
盖曼同学的可爱想象力啊
尼尔盖曼的写作有个基本的套路，就是把成人世界（现实世界）写进他所创造的奇幻世界中去，这本短篇小说也是这样，魔法世界的神奇＋童话世界的纯真＋成人世界的残酷，强烈的反差造就这种独特的艺术特色。
奥德赛公会翻译，不知是原文如此还是翻译问题，水准并不高。《女巫的墓石》即是《坟场之书》的一个章节。
Recommended by Bonnie, read with curiosity. All are very nice magical short stories, with an end that surprises me a lot. But certainly not suitable for "kids over 10" and below 16. The punchline is always way too ironic or even dark for young kids.
Oct in the chair,, so adorable.
很喜欢sunbird、chivalry和 the witch‘s headstone
不错，大晚上看还挺带劲的
最喜欢Troll bridge和October in the chair。
短篇合集，有的故事很有新意，平淡的生活也可以很精彩，想象力很丰富。有的故事就太平淡了点，看完了也没多少印象了。有的故事还比较幽默，很多搞笑的梗挺有意思。单词量还不小，但是大部分都是生僻字。挺不错的，8.3吧。
喜欢Chivalry, Sunbird, Instruction
