Neverwhere is the stunningly original first novel from Neil Gaiman, the
bestselling and prizewinning author of The Ocean at the End of the Lane and
American Gods. Wired called it 'the sort of book Terry Pratchett might produce
if he spent a month locked in a cellar with Frank Kafka'. This is a must-read
for all those who loved Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell or
the magical world of J.K. Rowling. Under the streets of London there's a world
most people could never even dream of. A city of monsters and saints,
murderers and angels, and pale girls in black velvet. Richard Mayhew is a
young businessman who is about to find out more than he bargained for about
this other London. A single act of kindness catapults him out of his safe and
predictable life and into a world that is at once eerily familiar and yet
utterly bizarre. There's a girl named Door, an Angel called Islington, an Earl
who holds Court on the carriage of a Tube train, a Beast in a labyrinth, and
dangers and delights beyond imagining ...And Richard, who only wants to go
home, is to find a strange destiny waiting for him below the streets of his
native city. Includes extra material exclusive to this Headline Review
edition.
