I've read a few stories and will most likely finish the rest this week. I really like it. I'm not prone to liking short stories, but these are quite good, I think.

Everwhere by Neil Gaiman. Urban fantasy and much better, in my opinion, than the overrated American Gods (which was great until it went all to hell in the ending).

I agree. The BBC had the Neverwhere miniseries available to download a few years ago. I haven't checked since then. I always picture the two villians as Penn and Teller. I really enjoyed
Stardust as sort of a light reading fairytale.
