When Fat Charlie’s dad named something, it stuck.

And all of a sudden, life starts getting very interesting for Fat Charlie.

Soms iets wat saai en voorspellend. In mijn mening niet 1 van Gaiman's beste. Niet zoals American Gods. Wel goed voorgelezen...

Onderduiken in de wereld van Neil Gaiman is heerlijk. Goed geschreven modern sprookje. Geweldig voorgelezen met de juiste accenten.
