5.0 out of 5 starsGAIMAN AT HIS BEST
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on November 7, 2022
I read this book some years ago. And now again. It has not lost its magic. Gaiman is a huge storyteller. This is one of five books that I would carry to an isolated mountain.

4.0 out of 5 stars Smoke and Mirrors is an absolutely excellent short story compilation book
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on November 30, 2015

Smoke and Mirrors is an absolutely excellent short story compilation book. Gaiman is a master storyteller, this particular compilation containing stories ranging anywhere from a page to over 20 pages. My only issue is that as a Neil Gaiman fan, I own most of his short story compilations and unfortunately, I had previously read many of the stories in 'Smoke and Mirrors' in his other compilations. Putting that aside however, this was a 5 star book; completely excellent.

3.0 out of 5 stars Mixed results.

Pretty good, but....Pretty miserable. Not what you might expect from this author (very sexually explicit, lots of vampires) but worth a read.

I loved the diversity in these stories. Some of them were dark, others humorous, but all of them were worth reading.
