Share the Gaiman Love

[slumber]

I am back--I have been back, only I've no idea how to fix everything so you get the interesting parts. :|

Anyhoo, I think I might have went on a Neil Gaiman splurge because as of now, I am now the proud owner of:

• Angels & Visitations (which they republished yay)
  
• The Last Temptation (which I took instead of Marvel 1602, which I'm sure I can find here)
  
• Mirrormask (both the DVD and the children's edition book)
  
• Two Plays for Voices (Snow, Glass, Apples and Murder Mysteries, which are as compelling as radio plays than as short stories and/or comics)
  
• Wolves in the Walls (paperback edition, for $6.99!)
  
• Audio Collection (which is him reading his children's stories)
  
• Now We Are Sick (a collection of gross poems edited by Gaiman)

So, yes. If anyone would like the radio plays, I'd be happy to upload them for you, but in the meantime, here are the tracks off his audio collection, originally uploaded for saphreanth. Hope you like them! :D

• Cinnamon - A tiger is called in to help a little princess find her voice.
  
• Crazy Hair - A poem about a boy's crazy hair. :P
  
• The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish - One of my favorites.
  
• Wolves in the Walls - Also a good one, and the longest. :P

Goddamn I need a Gaiman icon. :| (ETA: GIP. Best one I could find, though I share not the sentiment. Woe.) ALSO, I just found out that Neil Gaiman lives in Wisconsin, WHICH WE VISITED OOOH.

I'll stop being a dork now.

Tell me what I've missed. :D How are you?

Ooh, thanks for the uploads! *downloads Wolves in the Walls and the Goldfish one*

Is Angels and Visitations good? I adored Smoke and Mirrors and considered buying the other one, but I was never sure how many of the same stories were printed in Angels and thought it wouldn't be worth it if there was too much overlap. Er, if that made any sense.

No problem! :D

I haven't gone through it yet, but it does have plenty of things that came from Smoke and Mirrors, like Chivalry, Nicholas Was, Babycakes, Troll-bridge, Vampire Sestina, Foreign Parts, Virus, Looking for the Girl, We Can Get Them For You Wholesale, and Murder Mysteries. Which would be 10 of 22. :|

The rest are short stories, poems, essays and book reviews, though. Considering how the paperback copy of Smoke and Mirrors is $13.00 and I bought Angels and Visitations for nearly $30.00, it is rather steep, but I bought it also because I was collecting, so it's up to you. :P

Whether you decide to get it or not, I do have an html file of one story in A&V that isn't in S&M (The Case of Four and Twenty Blackbirds) which I'd be happy to email you. :)
