Neil Gaiman. If you don't know who Neil Gaiman is, you've really missed something. He is a writer whose insight into the dark side of the soul runs very deep. He is probably best known for his famed comic book series for adults "The Sandman". This epic -combining mythology, horror, drama and humor, among other things- has been collected in ten volumes and I own them all. For some reason he was never as popular in Germany as he is in the U. K. and the U. S. but I couldn't care less.

Along other topics relating to his work, he writes an online journal here:
