He also writes children's books - Coraline and The Graveyard Book are whimsical tales with some meat on the bones.

Full novel American Gods is classic Gaiman.

As you can see, I am too much of a fan to recommend one over another.
There's plenty out there to make your way through if you decide to commit.
