Bed Time Stories

Remember the times when going to bed was fun? These were the times when our grandparents sued to take us to the world of fantasy

. Stories of the pride, courage, honour and strength often were told with much passion and excitement. Needless to say we all were left mesmerized by these little fairy tales. Reminiscing those days we still want to go back to the moments when life was an illusion. That we know its not possible is another reality of the harsh world. But fantasies are meant to be treasured. Gifted authors around the world are masters of the art and have left us with immortal stories. Here are some of the best selling books in this category.

Nine Stories by J.D. Salinger

Written by American author J.D. Salinger, Nine stories as the name suggests is a collection of nine stories.

Smoke and Mirrors by Neil Gaiman

In the deft hands of Neil Gaiman, magic is no mere illusion and anything is possible. In this first book of short stories, his imagination and supreme artistry transform a mundane world into a place of terrible wonders -- a place where an old woman can purchase the Holy Grail at a thrift store, where assassins advertise their services in the Yellow Pages under "Pest Control," and where a frightened young boy must barter for his life with a mean-spirited troll living beneath a bridge by the railroad tracks. Explore a new reality -- obscured by smoke and darkness, yet brilliantly tangible -- in this extraordinary collection of short works by a master prestidigitator. It will dazzle your senses, touch your heart, and haunt your dreams. A sure treat for book lovers.

Fragile Things by Neil Gaiman

Like his previous short story collection, 1998s critically acclaimed Smoke and Mirrors, English author Gaiman's Fragile Things is a powerhouse compilation that proves once again that Gaiman is a true master of short fiction. It's fitting that he dedicates this collection to three short story icons -- Bradbury, Harlan Ellison, and Robert Sheckley. Gaimans book is a wildly diverse assortment of horror, sci-fi, dark fantasy, poetry, and speculative fiction.
