Cute little book that reads in no time. Neil Gaiman and Gene Wolfe (two deans of sci-fi and fantasy) write this guide to a historic Chicago neighborhood called the Shambles. Of course, no one can actually find the Shambles. Funny in that dark way that we love from both authors. It's a little hard to find and not much of a patch on the authors' better known works, but it's a nice way to while away part of an afternoon.
