Truth Is a Cave in the Black Mountains
by Neil Gaiman
73 Pages
It was nice of Neil to put out a new book in time for me to include in this month's contest. This short novelette is a tale of a dwarf that seeks a cave of treasure but it is also a tale of revenge, truth-seeking, family and a deeper moral.
Gaiman actually says in the back of the book that it is not a graphic novel but a large portion of the book is taken up by Eddie Campbell's illustrations so that's an arguable point.
