NEVERWHERE

I have been a fan of Neil Gaiman for quite sometime now. Everybody knows his the creator of the The Endless Siblings and of Dream and his sexy lovely sister Death. In this book of his titled "NEVERWHERE". Its like Alice meets Dorothy. Enter Richard Mayhew, ordinary office man in london who has a fiance which only thinks for herself and for her sucess. One day Richard saved a mysterious girl which it changed his life completely. Now why do some reviews say that NEVERWHERE is like Alice in Wonderland with NG style. First its because Door the mysterious girl is like the white rabbit whom Richard found and followed through out the story. The London Below setting is more like Wonderland because it is inhabited by interesting incentrict people, being the Earl's Court as the white queen and Ishlington as the red queen.. "OFF WITH THIER HEAD". Mr. Croup and Mr. Valdimore could be Twildy and Twildum. LOL. Now why Dorothy in wizard of OZ. It's because Richard seems to be lost in the city underneath London which looks like a complete different world. In his quest to find his way home, he and door and hunter and the Marque de Carabas.. took up a task from Inshlington. so its like the angel is the wizard and Richard and his friends are like dorothy and the lion the scarecrow and the tin man. Besides in the book there are joke lines such as.. "yes and he can give u a brain and me a heart." lol

So anyway, the book is interesting. I had this book since last year but I just set it aside coz I proiritized in reading my paranormal porn books first. Especially if there's a new LKHamilton book out in the market. Going back to the book, as I read its pages, it tells you about friendship, accepting your life and what life is offering you and sacrificing everything for something you most want to do. The book doesn't really makes sense but in a context makes sense. lol now i'm the one who is not making sense. Anyway... just like any NG novels this is interesting and quite amusing. Also like any novels of NG, NEVERWHERE also have a graphic novel version. There is a TV series already aired in BBC back in 1996 and the DVD is out aswell. But in NG's twitter account he has mentioned that a movie of NEVERWHERE is in planning along with his other books.
