I had planned on continuing with the comedic trilogy of Catch-22, Portnoy's Complaint and Cat's Cradle but since the library had The Graveyard Book available, I pounced on that instead. I remember Gaiman first mentioning it on his blog years ago and continued to read about it on his blog since then. I've been wanting to read it since it was published in September but never did for one reason or another. Like Interworld, it's geared at "Young Adults" so it's fairly short and quick to read. Unlike Interworld, it was actually intended to be a book, and Gaiman has another 10 years and several novels (including the very good American Gods and excellent Anansi Boys) under his belt. Even 50 pages in I can tell The Graveyard Book is pretty special.
