No Santa Cameo but...

I'm no fan of Neil Gaiman. But this line is gold and too precious to go unmentioned:

"The house smelled musty and damp, and a little sweet, as if it were haunted by the ghosts of long-dead cookies." -American Gods

I'm not completely in love with everything he writes, but I do like a lot of his stuff. His graphic novel series, The Sandman, is actually kind of my one true love. ^_^

American Gods is pretty awesome, too. Love that line!

Hmm. I've heard that his comics are better than his novels. Maybe I should try those before I give up on him.

Sandman is AMAZING. Seriously. It's also like, my childhood. (I had a kind of weird upbringing; my dad actually read me some of the Sandman comics as they were coming out.)

Oh, okay. Now you made me curious. I'm going to have a look at it. It would explain his love for the loud and explosive moments in his novels. That fits the comic medium better, methinks. Thanks for the rec!
