Tara Prescott - 1000Kitap

4/5 Stars (%80/100) This is one of the books that I decided to use for my thesis. The book is essentially a collection of essays that analyze Gaiman's major works including novels, comics, short stories, and more. My focus is on American Gods and Anansi Boys and this is why I found the book really useful. Jenn Anya Prosser's essay about American Gods and Campbell's monomyth theory was very well-written. Overall, it is a great source and I had fun reading it.

3/5 Stars (%62/100) Compared to Prescott's other book on Neil Gaiman, I found this one both less useful and fun to read. The book contains several essays that analyze Gaiman's works (mainly graphic novels) under the light of feminist theory. The essays are somewhat useful for my thesis but that is another case. I found myself getting bored from time to time, especially compared to the other book I've mentioned. This book was published first so I can see how Prescott improved as an editor. Overall, it is a good source especially if you are into feminist theory along with fantasy.
