A special illustrated edition of Black Dog by bestselling storytelling legend, Neil Gaiman. This American Gods world novella will thrill Games of Thrones devotees and Terry Pratchett fans alike.

Something shadowing them all.… (más)

The third book in the American Gods series.

Another good little novella, very much in the similar to The Monarch of the Glen, with Shadow getting himself caught up in things uncanny and folklore-ish once again.

Yes folks, it's just more of that really good Neil Gaiman writing. ( )

I honestly have no clue why this seems to collect praises.
Shadow is nothing like himself.
And the story is quite weak. Not enough fleshing out. Too incomplete, lacking... something. ( )

It's hard to compare Black Dog with The Monarch of the Glen. They're such different stories. But I have to say that I think I like Black Dog better. Monarch felt more like an American Gods story, but Black Dog was more engaging.

I loved the kind of ghost story feel it gave me the whole time I read it. Again, there was some nice development with Shadow, but I still wish they'd focus more on the whole son of Odin thing.

But I digress. This short is really good, it's well paced, builds up tension expertly, and then resolves everything in a satisfying way. I definitely enjoyed it. ( )

Yay more Shadow Moon.

Perhaps this deserves 5 stars? I'm not sure. it was brill to have more stories with Shadow, maybe it finished a bit brusquely. Wonderful mixing of myth and legend into everyday. ( )
