I voted for Smoke & Mirrors... The variety of short stories and poems inside this book can give a first-time Neil Gaiman reader a pretty good insight on his style. S&M (lol) was the first Gaiman non-comic/graphic novel publication I read and I like to think it made me enjoy a lot more my following readings of his work such as Stardust, Neverwhere and American Gods.
Btw, sorry for my horrible english. I read all this stuff in portuguese ^^'...
