GOOD, it's not just me! I respect him as a writer and I think he's an interesting guy but none of his works have ever particularly grabbed me. I really enjoyed American Gods and Sandman too, but no more than any other decent book I've read. I'm kind of baffled as to how popular he seems to be.

It's weird because all of my friends are obsessed with him. Any time his name comes up it's like OH NEIL GAIMAN YEAH HE'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT CLASS OF WRITER THAN ANY OTHER CONTEMPORARY FANTASY/HORROR WRITER EVER AND HAVE YOU READ HIS LATEST? And I pretend to be a big fan because some of my friends genuinely feel his books have changed their lives and I don't want to belittle that.

I will say that his episode of Doctor Who was one of the best I've ever seen, though. Mostly because I love the idea of, um, anthropomorphisms.

OH and I forgot about Good Omens -- that's one of my favorite books of all time, but I tend to file it under "Terry Pratchett" in my head.

This x a million. I say, if you've read American Gods and Sandman, you've read them all. None of his other books did it for me.

I file Good Omens under Pratchett, too :P

You've summed it up exactly like I would have. I enjoy 'American Gods', 'Sandman', and 'Good Omens' but he is in no way "A God amongst authors!". I too have friends who rave about everything he does like it is perfect and amazing, but he's just an author to me. Not my favorite, but generally enjoyable. Solidarity!
