Summary: Mediocre [For Gaiman] Faustian Tale
Review: When I purchased this title, I had no idea it was a collaboration with Alice Cooper, released as a promotion for his "The Last Temptation" album. If I had known, I probably would not have bought it. I've never been an Alice Cooper fan.. I think he's embarassingly cheesy. Personal taste aside, though, this still isn't an exceptional work. Owing much to Faust by way of Ray Bradbury's "Something Wicked This Way Comes", the story is about evil [looking remarkably like Alice Cooper, natch] tempting the good. As Gaiman says himself in the introduction, "The story wasn't a story I would have come up with alone: it was too clear-cut. God was looking out for the innocent, and the serpent was always looking for a way into your heart." Recommended only to "die-hard" Gaiman fans, who want to own every single thing he's ever done, or to fans of Alice Cooper.
