Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. 550 3.5 stars This is a graphic novel made up of two short stories from Gaiman's book Smoke and Mirrors. The stories are The Price and The Daughter of Owls. I've read Smoke and Mirrors, but only remembered one of the two stories (The Price) and since it's about a cat, it was, of course, my favourite of the two. In The Price, a beat-up black kitty shows up at a farmhouse, and is taken care of, but the cat continues to get beaten up every night. In The Daughter of Owls, an abandoned baby is left in the care of a convent. Like with any book of short stories, I liked the one much better than the other, so my rating reflects a split between them. A very quick, but great read! 'The Daughter of Owls' was a nice story, more like a traditional fairy tale. But the one that I liked best was 'The Price'. I liked it because of the open ending. Not knowing what is going to happen afterwards can be irritating, but it suited the story here. I also liked it because we used to have cats, and somehow it is always the black ones that end up fighting a lot. I wonder what our Beurnie had to fight ... ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

From the New York Times best-selling author Neil Gaiman comes this collection, featuring two magical and disturbing stories lushly adapted to comics by veteran painter Michael Zulli (The Last Temptation). Rewritten by Gaiman for this graphic novel, these two ominous stories from the author's award-winning prose work Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions feature animals and people not being quite what they seem. In "The Price," a black cat like a small panther arrives at a country home and is soon beset by mysterious and vicious wounds. What is he fighting every night that could do this, and why does he persist? "The Daughter of Owls" recounts an eerie old tale of a foundling girl who was left with an owl pellet as a newborn on the steps of the Dymton Church. She was soon cloistered away in a local convent, but by her fourteenth year word of her beauty had spread-and those who would prey upon her faced unforeseen consequences.
