Yeah. dAN has never written anything in his life. :D



I'm still working on it, but it's really a rewrite of the first book.

I'd say Gaiman, who does dark humour and inexplicable things all awesomely - from fantasy to light horror would go awesomely well with Le Guin, whose stories, whether set in the future in space, or semi-medieval fantasy, whether to do with dragons, spirituality and politics makes everything she writes seem light-hearted, yet profound and entirely believable.

The Gaiman-Pratchett collaboration 'Good Omens' was fantastic, btw.

Good call on Gaiman/Le Guin! Not sure I agree about 'Good Omens' though! Thought the concept was great, the execution dubious.

actually.. it did take me a while to get into it, now I remember.. And I was meant to follow it up with more Pratchett stuff, but instead I've found myself reading the Tide Lords series be Jennifer Fallon.

I'd love to see Neil Gaiman set loose in Jim Butcher's Dresdenverse. Gaiman does such interesting things with existing Mythologies. I'd love to see his take on Butcher's mythologies.
