Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman
My rating: 5 out of 5
My review:
I knew right away on the second page this is an extraordinary book. It pulled me right away into the world of London Below, with rat-speakers, angels, hunters and prey. There is nothing I can say that will truly express how much I enjoyed reading this book. It was exciting, scary, funny and oftentimes surprising. I loved all the characters, but I felt particularly engaged around Marquis de Carabas and the two good-hearted fellows: Mr. Croup and Mr. Vandemar. This is the scary version of Alice in Wonderland. You will get to know what happens when you fall through the cracks. Let Neil Gaiman be your guide to the London Below, and leave behind your life. Be aware though that the night is dark and can take its toll.
