The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Neil Gaiman continues to produce strange and bizarre stories. But they are always intriguing. This one is no different. Part adult and part young adult in content.
It is the story of young boy who encounters a girl named Lettie who promises to always protect him. She takes him to a place where unfortunately he gets “infected” with a dark entity who ultimately seems to want to claim him.
The story was so compelling that I finished it in three days (it not a long story).
