Black Dog

De: Neil Gaiman

Narrado por: Neil Gaiman

'It followed me home,' he said conversationally.

In a rural northern village, legend tells of a ghostly black dog that appears from the darkness before you die.

Shadow Moon has been on the road a while now, but he can't walk any farther tonight, not with the rain lashing down. Gratefully he heads home with a nice English couple, who offer a box room, hot whisky and local tales. But when the man collapses en route, Shadow realises that something about this place has been left untold. Something ancient, something within the very walls of the village. Something shadowing them all.

Continuation of the story of the Shado

For Neil Geeman lovers a candy for the ears is highly recommended Excellent presentation by the writer himself

A good story

Short, but with unexpected twists and turns. You don’t have to have read anything else featuring Shadow to understand it.

Author's own voice brings the story to life

An author who narrates his own books is a rarity. In this case a very positive thing.

Wonderful story of Shadow Moon

I have to admit that American Gods is not my favorite Gaiman novel (though I have enjoyed everything he has written so far, even if it’s just for his elegant writing style) but this I really enjoyed. I did immediately understand what was going on, but that didn’t make it any less fun. Definitely recommend this for Gaiman enthusiasts

Primitive

Don't want to spoil this, more than it already is, because the twist might be the only consolation for another poor listener like myself, but just so you know, this is a most primitive story in terms of theme, imagination, and structure. A waste of time,since it has been told and retold hundreds of times in several cultures.
