That depends. There is almost always something distinctly Gaiman about the voice, but the types of story vary widely - so there is no guarantee you will like everything you find. I'm not a big fan of American Gods, but I absolutely love Stardust, Neverwhere and The Graveyard Book. I enjoyed Anansi Boys and The Ocean at the End of the Lane. For me Coraline was only so so.

I also really like Good Omens, which is Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, but Gaiman's voice isn't quite so distinct in there - to be expected I suppose, the book really is a blend of the two of them.

I haven't yet read Gaiman's most recent releases but plan to soon.
