Anderson And Gaiman

I have finished rereading Poul Anderson's The Day Of Their Return and am not about to start rereading his Captain Flandry series at 11:30 p.m. Since it is this time of night, I will simply list the parallels that I can remember between Poul Anderson and Neil Gaiman although this time without documenting them (but they are to be found on the blog):

Emperor Norton
Mark Twain
Caesar Augustus and the decline of the Roman Empire
Marco Polo
Orpheus
A Midsummer Night's Dream
The Tempest
time travel
an inter-universal inn
James Elroy Flecker
Rudyard Kipling
immortals
Hell, demons and the Adversary
the withdrawal of Faerie from Earth
something I have forgotten
