"Waiting On" Wednesday #113: Unnatural Creatures: Stories Selected by Neil Gaiman!

Posted by Aleksandra at 1:18 AM

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
 
 
 
 
Unnatural Creatures: Stories Selected by Neil Gaiman
by
Neil Gaiman

Publication date:
April 23rd, 2013
 
 


A griffin, a werewolf, a sunbird . . .

These are just some of the fantastical creatures you'll encounter within these pages. From the cockatoucan, whose laugh rearranges an entire kingdom, to the roving shapeless Beast that lurks in a forest, herein is a collection of rare and magnificent species. Each one will thrill, delight, and quite possibly unnerve you.

Selected by master storyteller Neil Gaiman, the sixteen stories in this menagerie will introduce you to a host of strange, wondrous beings that have never existed anyplace but in the richness of the imagination.

With stories from Neil Gaiman, Diana Wynne Jones, E. Nesbit, and many more, Unnatural Creatures will benefit the literacy nonprofit 826DC.





What are you waiting for this week?

    I think this looks good myself. I think it would be interesting to read stories Gaiman likes. Here is mine:

    Love this cover. I've only read one other book by Gaiman, it was alright but it didn't blow me away. I'm gonna try again though!
