A Walking Tour of the Shambles

A Walking Tour of the Shambles (Little Walks For Sightseers #16) (2002) is a fictional tour guide concerning a non-existent part of Chicago called 'The Shambles'. It guides the reader through such landmarks as The House of Clocks (see the official website), Cereal House (home of the Terribly Strange Bed), and Gavagan's Irish Saloon. A collaboration between Neil Gaiman and Gene Wolfe (illustrated by Randy Broecker and Earl Geier), it was published with two different covers by the American Fantasy Press. The cautious reader is advised to avoid members of the International Brotherhood of Meatworkers at all costs.
