This book is a great read for those who enjoy dark comedy and appreciate Burton's gothic, offbeat style. The characters are uniquely strange and each story leaves a lasting impression. Fans of Edward Scissorhands and The Nightmare Before Christmas will surely love The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy.
