This is a middle grade book that I don't I think I would have bothered with but I did pick up all on the strength of Gaiman's name.  The story is cute and the art very much helps the story along in the book and the silly over the top story almost comes to a dull ending if it wasn't for the last illustration in the book. a cute children's book and I'm sure lots of copies will be sold but certainly not the best Gaiman kid's story.

This is a reread for me bu it had been almost 7 years and a few details were blurry. And I had requested the book to review with the release of it with a new publisher.

My original review is here

I can't add too much more to this but I'm on the fence is this science fiction or is it fantasy. SF with the technology and fantasy with the interactions with gods and demons. And yet both work so well with the framework of the setting. I'm happy to see these books are getting re released and I hope they hit a wider audience this time around because there is something for almost every reader of genre fiction in there.
