Neil Gaiman will have a new book coming out next month! It's called Coraline and is Mr. G's entry into the world of Harry Potter-esque children's chapter books. It's the story of a young girl who discovers a passageway in her family's rambling house, and finds herself in an alternate version of her own home, presided over by a creepy figure called "the other mother." (She looks like Coraline's real mother, only with black buttons sewn on her face where her eyes ought to be.) I'm trying to nab an advance copy, so look for a review here soon. Here's hoping Gaiman pulls off another genre-transcending work like the Sandman; he needs it after the rather lackluster and prosaic (well, prosaic for Gaiman) American Gods.
Pre-order Coraline today!
