A beautiful legend for adults or children, the story of a boy who chases a fallen star and get so much more than he bargains for! Gaiman is a master storyteller, one of the best in this genre and this gentle adventure is an absolute gem. Simple and short, magical and exciting, I can only hope the film will follow it faithfully!
It is here in Wall that young Tristran Thorn loses his heart to the town beauty--a woman who is as cold and distant as the star she and Tristran see fall from the sky on a crisp October evening. To gain the hand of his beloved, Tristran rashly vows to fetch the fallen star and embarks upon a lover's quest that will carry him over the ancient wall and into a world beyond his wildest imaginings... Neil Gaiman's Stardust features the New York Times best-selling author (The Sandman) and one of the industry's best illustrators at the height of their creative powers.
