Book Review of Neverwhere

Neverwhere
Neverwhere
Author: Neil Gaiman
Genre: Science Fiction & Fantasy
Book Type: Paperback

Neverwhere was an easy and interesting read. The plot twists and climactic scenes were, perhaps, somewhat simplistic, but in a good way. The dry, absurd humor reminded me a bit of Terry Pratchett. Also, the lack of well defined rules for the world that Gaiman constructs reminded me of Discworld. And of course, all the references to particular places in London would likely mean more to people familiar with the city than they did to me.
