Gaiman, Neil, (author.). Allred, Mike (Mike Dalton) (Added Author). King, Stephen, 1947- (Added Author).

Summary:

Stephen King's Introduction sets the stage for a series of tales with a haunting geometry--some angular, some parallel, some concentric. An eerie mirror of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, this collection tells of a group of travelers from throughout time, myth and dream, who converge at a mysterious inn to seek refuge from a "reality storm". Graphic novel format. Mature readers.
