From one of the most critically acclaimed and beloved storytellers of our time comes a major new collection of stories and verse that pierce the veil of reality to reveal the enigmatic, shadowy realms that lie just below the surface of our everyday world."We each have our little triggers. . . . things that wait for us in the dark corridors of our lives." So says Neil Gaiman in his introduction to Trigger Warning, a remarkable compendium of twenty-five stories and poems that explore the transformative power of imagination. Here is a rich cornucopia of horror and ghost stories, science fiction and fairy tales, fabulism and poetry that chart the wilds of experience and emotion. Included is "Nothing O'Clock," a very special Doctor Who story that was written for the beloved series in 2013, as well as the never-before-published "Black Dog," a haunting new tale that revisits the world of American Gods as Shadow Moon stops in at a village pub on his way back to America.Gaiman, a sophisticated writer whose creative genius is unparalleled, entrances with his literary alchemy and transports us deep into an undiscovered country where the fantastical becomes real and the everyday is incandescent. Replete with wonder and terror, surprises and amusements, Trigger Warning is a treasury of literary delights that engage the mind, stir the heart, and shake the soul.

Some you like, some you go, yuck. This is one of those eating box of chocolate case. I like the Doctor Who story as a Whovian. The Sleeper and the Spindle is nice too. The rest, not so much. I adore Neil Gaiman. But then I don't really like short stories that much. Enjoy. Not even a go...
I meant to just read this book when I was on my trip to Ecuador next week, but decided to finish it now since my library has a bunch of books I put on hold come up for me to borrow. If I can finish a few others one before Monday I am going to be happy.Back to this collection. Meh. And you also get a...
I wasn’t a fan of this. Honestly I really like Neil Gaiman in like pretty much every way except for in his writing, so um that’s a thing. The thing that really kills me is I can’t figure out what doesn’t work for me about his writing, because I like all the elements but when they go together it does...
Listening to Neil Gaiman is such a lovely thing, I realized I would be willing to listen to him reading phone books or grocery lists. But it's even better to hear him reading his stories. In his introduction, he discusses trigger warnings--from their start on the internet to their being attached t...
Trigger Warning is an anthology of 24 short stories written by Neil Gaiman. I often find short stories entertaining but ultimately unsatisfying, and I think that pretty much describes how I felt about most of the stories here. I bought this on sale for $1.99 earlier this year. I like Neil Gaiman’...
