Glad to see you reviewing this...I have a hard copy of this (that I got back in about '98), and I also got the bundle last year with it and all those other rarities.

I don't think I've read all of it (or I don't remember all of it if I do), but one of my favorite Gaiman stories is in it: "Chivalry," which is not only one of my favorite things that he's done, but also one of my favorite modern Grail stories. It has been heavily anthologized elsewhere, granted, but I do believe it appeared in this book first...

That is a very dark story.

I have very fond memories of this collection.

The one about Tetris, Babycakes, Troll Bridge - so many good stories.
