This is very much a hit or miss collection of short stories (quite possibly more miss than hit to be honest, with Gaiman's feeling like a quick sprint to get something done, and a disappointment), but there is one exceptional story in this: "No One Dies in Nowhere". Which is a remarkable and fantastic re-telling story of Purgatory/Afterlife from a Catholic standpoint. Kind of a retelling of Dante's Inferno to a degree but with a criminal crime noir bent to it. Worth the book right there. Just wish much of the other stories held up as much. (The opening story is good, as is the Robo Rapids story, other than those three, the book is pretty much a miss.) ( )
