At the dawn of the Victorian era, life moves leisurely in the sleepy village of Wall.
Young Tristran Thorn has lost his heart to the beautiful Victoria Forester and, to win her love, vows to bring her a star they see fall from the night sky.
It is an oath that sends him over the town's ancient wall and into the mysterious land of Faerie - a world that is dangerous and strange beyond imagining . . .
NEIL GAIMAN.
WITH STORIES COME POSSIBILITIES.

Rezension zu „Stardust “
In prose that dances and dazzles, Gaiman describes the indescribable: the eerie colours, ravishing scents and dangerous laughter of Faerie -- Susanna Clarke A new fairy tale about a young man's hunt for his heart's desire, told in clear, rolling prose -- Guardian
Pressezitat
It's virtually impossible to read more than ten words by Neil Gaiman and not wish he would tell you the rest of the story Observer
