Search - Neverwhere

The kind of book I would have adored at 12.Entertaining enough for adults though.The London underground takes on a whole other meaning in this novel.

This is an excellent work of urban fantasy! Richard is a typical office worker in London, and isn't too thrilled with his mundane life. When he finds an injured girl lying on a sidewalk, he follows her into "London Underground" where strange creatures and stranger characters exist and aren't exactly friendly. It's a bit like Alice In Wonderland for grown-ups.

Great book! This is one of those great books that sets up an underground, unbeknownst to us sort of fantasy world that the main character stumbles into- done right! Not all writers can pull this sort of plot off, but Gaiman does great it great. (if you've already seen the BBC production of this, don't worry its not as bad as they made it at all!)

Loved it! As a friend of mine said once, Neil Gaiman must have some special fairy dust he sprinkles on all his books--they're all great reads!

Once you get into story, it's a very enjoyable read. Hard to get all the characters straight in the begining, but once there, you will be captivated. The book is graphic and mystical in nature, and I generally avoid this genre. If you ridden the London Underground, it is especially interesting. Mind the gap!

Mind the Gap.

A wonderfully imaginative and dark story of London Above and London Below. This was my introduction to Gaiman's writing and I'm hooked. I can't get enough of him.

Fantasy with a comic book flair. I love the imagination and imagery Gaiman conjures with his writing.

An okay work. Interesting, but nothing in here that wowed me.

This was my first book in a sci-fi genre. Gaiman tells an amazing story about what lies beneath London, and the society that thrives in the tunnels. Really good!

Kept me intrigued throughout... I didn't want to put it down!

I found this book to be a LOT of fun to read. Perfect commuter book, extremely visual and funny. I really enjoyed it.

This is one of those books you give up sleep to finish reading. The underworld and fantasy of it all keeps you wanting more. Great read, even after the third time around.

This was probably my favorite Neil Gaiman book I've read. I'd seen the BBC series, so nothing was much of a surprise (the 2 versions are pretty faithful), but it's just a weird and wonderful story - and with the ending that many many such books OUGHT to have but don't!

Reading this book reminds me of reading TS Eliot when I was a kid, before I'd ever been to England, and all the place-names were imbued with a mystic and legendary feeling....

This is a fabulous book! It is like Alice in Wonderland for adult lovers of thrillers and adventure!!! I will be reading everything by Gaiman that I can get my hands on!!!!!!!!!! You will LOVE it!

Such a good book. He is able to give a view straight into his imagination

Fun, well-written dark fantasy.

Fun to read.

An earlier Gaiman book ever bit as good as "American Gods".

Not what I expected from all the hype. A very good peek into basic Gaiman worldview, but it was written without all the typical richness I usually expect from this author, in my opinion. He has written better, but still was worth the read.

like an adult Harry Potter with more sinister twists.
