Award-winning creator, narrator, and screenwriter Neil Gaiman personally selected this reserve, and, using the tools of the Audiobook Creation Exchange (ACX), cast the narrator and produced this be employed by his audiobook label, Neil Gaiman Presents. A number of words from Neil on The High Place: THE HIGH PLACE: A Funny OF DISENCHANTMENT is what goes on to the storyline of Sleeping Beauty when told as a cautionary - yet somehow rollicking - story book. Our hero - if hero we might call a man who's just murdered each of his four wives - is the tasteful and aristocratic Florian de Puysange....Florian is everyone's imagine an amoral protagonist, all style and flourish, witty and urbane, a total cad who serves on every pleasure it occurs to him to desire...and he gets away with it. UNTIL everything comes due. In the sulphurous The High Place, the amoral hero Florian gets into the sleeping-beauty story and (unlike Jurgen with Helen) does not draw back at the look of high beauty. Complications ensue: Beauty is realistically reduced during being pregnant, the first-born child is forfeit to Satan under the pact that assured Florain's success, and an irascible saint is wanting to call down holy fire on transgressors. Florian treads near damnation which is saved only once Satan and the angel Michael conspire to let recent situations become, again, a goal: he has a unusual second chance and learns better.
