His details are exquisite." -- Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) "A striking volume...thrums with malevolence and confounds our expectations...[the pictures] seem to writhe creepily on the page." -- Wall Street Journal "Unabashedly feminist...So sonically tuned that it breathes on its own from the very first line. Adding to the wonder are Chris Riddell's dazzling illustrations." -- New York Times Book Review, Unforgettable, unpredictable and utterly enchanting for anyone between the ages of seven and seventy.

Synopsis
In a beautiful collaboration, New York Times bestselling and Newbery and Carnegie Medal-winning author Neil Gaiman and Kate Greenaway-winning illustrator Chris Riddell have created a thrillingly reimagined fairy tale, "told in a way only Gaiman can" and featuring "stunning metallic artwork" (GeekInsider.com). The result is a beautiful and coveted edition of The Sleeper and the Spindle that the Guardian calls "a refreshing, much-needed twist on a classic story." In this captivating and darkly funny tale, Neil Gaiman and Chris Riddell have twisted together the familiar and the new as well as the beautiful and the wicked to tell a brilliant version of Snow White's (sort of) and Sleeping Beauty's (almost) stories. This story was originally published (without illustrations) in Rags & Bones (Little, Brown, 2013). This is the first time it is being published as an illustrated, stand-alone edition, and the book is a beautiful work of art.

Transaction went smoothly and item shipped quickly. Packaging was maybe not quite as robust as I would have liked to see, but wasn’t poorly done nor sloppy. The book arrived without issue or damage and as described in the listing. I would purchase from this seller again.
