Neil Gaiman & Charles Vess' Stardust

From: $31.05

In the sleepy English countryside at the dawn of the Victorian Era, young Tristran Thorn has lost his heart to beautiful Victoria Forester. But Victoria is cold and distant -- as distant, in fact, as the star she and Tristran see fall from the sky on a crisp October evening. For the coveted prize of Victoria's hand, Tristran vows to retrieve the fallen star and deliver it to his beloved. It is an oath that sends the lovelorn swain into a world that is strange beyond imagining, a world populated by evil old witches, deadly clutching trees, and goblin press-gangs -- a world redeemed only by true love.

This oversized hardcover edition of STARDUST allows the breathtaking art of Charles Vess to be seen in its finest presentation, and ties in to the film version of STARDUST, coming in May 2007.

Not what I would consider an amazing book. I would suggest you borrow it, but now buy it. Not something I'll read through a second time.

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 24, 2008 Type: User Review Very Good Fantasy!

I first watched the movie and liked it so much I decided to read the book. I liked the book much better, although the movie is very good. There is much that the movie left out. This book is truly a great fantasy.

I watched the movie prior to reading the book. The movie had better one-liners and the story was more interesting.

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 12, 2008 Type: User Review Very disapointed

I bought this book after seeing the movie which I absolutely loved. This was the first book I have read by Gaiman and I am so unimpressed I don't think I'll be reading any of his other work.

This book felt like he wrote one draft,...

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 07, 2008 Type: User Review Wonderful fairy tale

With Gaiman's remarkable fantasy world and Vess's ethereal artwork, this book brings the best of both kinds of storytelling together. The faerie world beyond "The Wall" hosts a range creatures at least a little unlike any I've seen before, not...

I can't recall off the top of my head a time when I actually thought the movie was better than the book... but that would definitely be the case with this book. I felt that the parts that were added to the movie that weren't in the book added to...

I'm sure the book would be a very good read. Unfortunately, I'm not fluent in Spanish. I ordered one copy of the book (with other books), and received the Spanish version. I thought, "OK, my bad, I must have ordered the wrong version". I went...

A quick read, written like the...
