So I think I have a love/hate relationship with Gaiman books. Everything about them says I should love them, but 50% of the time I...well I don't hate them, but I also don't love them. This was another that I didn't love. It's fantasy, adventure, intrigue, and good narration (I listened and read ...
by Neil Gaiman I've got the definitive authors preferred edition of this and the advantage of not having seen much of the television series, so I'm experiencing this Fantasy world as Neil Gaiman intended it should be. It starts out introducing two main characters; Richard from London above, who ...
A good and interesting book. Quite useful to read when the mundane cares of the world threaten to drown you, in your little office or in a crowded street. This book helps you remember that is not all that life can bring. Though I must admit, my dark and twisted heart was a bit disappointed at the en...
I enjoyed this after a bit. The first 30 to 40 percent I found slow. But the book picks up momentum and I liked how we get to see more of the London Below via other characters when we're not following the main characters of Richard and Door. Richard Mayhew finds himself helping a young woman one n...
For my first read I choose the book NeverWhere by Neil Gaiman, as I mentioned before. And I really enjoyed the book even though it was a very strange and confusing book. I really thought the main character of Richard was pretty strange and I liked him well enough, but the character of Door was my fa...
This was an interesting fantasy. It's about a world called London Below with all sorts of people and creatures that the people in actual London can't see. A common Londoner, average guy, ends up in the middle of war/quest type scenario. This other world is pretty cool. It's made up of rats and l...
I've rediscovered urban fantasy. This is the urban fantasy I was wanting to read when I kept stumbling into that ossified sub-genre full of vampires and weres. I love me some Hollows or Daniels like I love my fries and ice-cream, but every once in a while I want a different flavor, and it's been ha...
This was a reread for me, and it didn't disappoint. I had initially read it years ago as a teenager, so although I remembered roughly what happened, it was a whole new experience. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what to say about it other than it's pretty awesome in a slightly creepy, slightly unsettlin...
Some people are born to be heroes. Richard Mayhew is not one of them. Richard would just like to get through the day. Richard is a passive participant in his life, allowing his girlfriend, now fiance, Jessica to control him. That is until one day, Richard decides to make a decision for himself a...
definitely a dream cast, very well done overall. however... I'm not sure I'd listen to anything with the same sound engineer, there were a lot of wet mouth noises and similar noises that made me want to throw the CDs out the window of my car. Anytime someone was eating it was pure torture, and co...
