Come, come and hear of the strange and terrible tale of Miss Finch, an exacting woman befallen by mystery and abduction deep under the streets of London! New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman delivers another stunning hardcover graphic novel with longtime collaborator Michael Zulli (Creatures of the Night, The Sandman). This is the first comics adaptation of his popular story "The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch," which saw print only in the U.K. edition of Gaiman's award-winning work Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions and was recently interpreted for his Speaking in Tongues CD. The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch is a "mostly true story" that combines the author's trademark magic realism with Zulli's sumptuous paintings, and has been newly rewritten for this hardcover. Join a group of friends, with the stern Miss Finch in tow, as they enter musty caverns for a subterranean circus spectacle called "The Theatre of Night's Dreaming." Come inside, get out of the pounding rain, and witness this strange world of vampires, ringmasters, illusions and the Cabinet of Wishes Fulfill'd.… (meer)

I generally know what I'm going to get when I pick up something by Neil Gaiman: something slightly creepy and/or odd, with a little bit of dry humor sprinkled in there.

And this didn't disappoint. A group of three friends (plus one stick-in-the-mud relative foisted upon them) go to a mysterious circus, where the titular Miss Finch realizes her true wish.

Honestly, I'm a little jealous of her lol. ( )

I've liked pretty much all of Gaiman's novels, but I never seem to have much luck with his short stories. I didn't love the artwork and the story didn't grab me, even though I could tell there was more than met the eye. It was only 50 pages, though, so it was entertaining enough. ( )

This is an updated edition of an older comic. It recounts the story of an evening to an odd circus and what happened to one of their party while they were there. Three friends plan an evening out and due to a last minute addition to the group of a sorta friend of a friend from out of town they go to odd circus show of only human performers. To really say any more would ruin the plot but it was an enjoyable read.

I don't usually enjoy Michael Zulli's art but I liked it in this one. The story was okay, but I tend to be turned off by stories where not a lot happens and it almost seems on purpose so that it will seem more "literate". So I would put this in the "for hardcore Gaiman fans" category. ( )
