I downloaded this when it was free on Audible. It's 12 minutes in total, the first 2 minutes Gaiman explains how donations to charity will be based on how many downloads this received. The last 45 seconds was author/recording information. So about 9 minutes of actual story equates to probably 3 to 5 pages maybe less. All I'm saying is, it's short.I think it's hard to really have a powerful story in that short a time, even for Neil Gaiman. I won't say it's impossible, it just wasn't the case here. It's good enough, Gaiman himself even reads it so that's a positive. It's not like it will waste your time either, but I guess even if it were really bad it wouldn't either. In a rush to get to my reading goal of 75 books this year, I went back to my Audible account to listen to Neil Gaiman's Audible Freebee I downloaded months again.I got the bejezzeus scared out of me. Serves me right for cheating.I love Neil Gaiman, I love that my daughter loves him, and I next year I will participate in his Hollowreed without a doubt.BTW if you have an Audible account... DOWNLOAD THIS BOOK. It contributes to a wonderful charity!
Do You like book Click-Clack The Rattlebag (2012)?
Not really scary - my 10 yr old agreed. The kind of story kids tell during sleepovers ;)

Fun little short story for Halloween! As always, I love Neil Gaiman's narration.

It's all right. It's free on audible and read by the author.
