Easily my favourite of the Gaiman I've read so far - I think his style works much better when he's not trying to be overly pretentious and involve too much philosophising in his work.
I bought this book under the praise and adulation that Gaiman seems to get from...well...everyone.In reality, the book was poorly written, a little boring, and very confusing. I was under the impression it was for YA or kids, but yet had multiple instances of profanity, semi-graphic sex scenes, and ...

Neil Gaiman offers many clever quips about Tristran's journey - and, in effect, the journey of many characters...
Stardust follows the adventure of one Tristran Thorn from his unusual birth through to his eventual marriage. Well this is a modern fairytale for older audiences after all.
