The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Coraline, was my first encounter with Neil Gaiman as a child, the powerful imagery that was created within the story, the plot and just over all the general writing style used slipped under the radar. So reading "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" was quite and enjoyable experience for myself. 

Taking these factors into account really gave me a second chance to read his work for what it was, to understand what was going on within the story, as well as to see some of the literarily risks he took while writing. 

He possesses the ability to capture you typical "myth" and create a world around it like no other. You are forced to continue to read what you start because of the way he hooks you with his words. 

I feel like Neil Gaiman work, was something that makes this class complete, his work, most certainly contains all that fantasy is, even just by looking at how Coraline translated to a movie, was in my opinion executed as well as it was because of the imagery you could take away from the writing.
