false <![CDATA[Creatures Of The Night]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1167348864m/22344.jpg 22344 3 Newly rewritten by Gaiman for this graphic novel, these two ominous stories from the author's award-winning prose, Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions, feature animals and people not being quite what they seem. In "The Price," a black cat like a small panther arrives at a country home and is soon beset by mysterious and vicious wounds. What is he fighting every night that could do this, and why does he persist? "The Daughter of Owls" recounts an eerie old tale of a foundling girl who was left - with an owl pellet - as a newborn on the steps of the Dymton Church. She was soon cloistered away in a local convent, but by her fourteenth year word of her beauty had spread - and those who would prey upon her faced unforeseen consequences. 157326 27 12 2004 Creatures Of The Night total:254|5:72|4:86|3:78|2:17|1:1| 254 973 391 25 3 0 false false Fri Apr 18 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Apr 12 19:13:31 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 24 05:18:19 -0700 2009 "Smoke and Mirrors" with illustrations provided by artist Michael Zulli.
