I've read this book so many times and it never fails to impress.Richard Mayhew heads down to London to start a new job. He meets a girl, they get engaged, and then...he "falls through the cracks" and his life isn't the same.There are a whole lot of people like Richard, who for whatever reason have s...
Ah, happiest of sighs. I think everyone knows my obsession with Neil Gaiman at this point. Which is why, even though I've already read Neverwhere, I hopped on the opportunity to read this new version with Gaiman's preferred text. There's a wonderful note from him at the beginning that chronicles wha...
Neverwhere is the story of Richard Mayhew, a 30 something Londoner who, through a random act of kindness, finds himself caught up in an adventure in "London Below", an alternate London that operates under it's own set of behaviours and rules (physics included).

You've a good heart. Sometimes that's enough to see you safe wherever you go. But mostly, it's not.” 'Under the streets of London there's a place most people could never even dream of. A city of monsters and saints, murderers and angels, knights in armour and pale girls in black velvet. This is th...

I hope I enjoy it as much as most of the rest of the reading population seem to have.I don't really know what to expect from this book, the summary on the back wasn't particularly enlightening as to exactly what the book is about.
