Millar dumps everything into this lightweight fantasy -- feuding fairies, a lovesick musician, a hippy chick obsessed with flowers, a gonzo production of Midsummer Night's Dream, a bag lady with delusions of grandeur, and a rock'n'roll ghost, mixes them all up, and hopes for the best. While wildly imaginative it does tend to get a big out of control at times. Neil Gaiman's introduction remains probably the best part of the book.
