The fact that I finished this book in under 48 hours (fast for me) says something about how much I enjoyed it. It's got all the classic Gaiman sytle, taking real names, places and myths and twisting them into a world of dark comedy fairy tale. I was going to write a novel about London city's disposed, this would be the way I'd love to do it. It conveys the feel of the town and it's people - seemingly inspired by Dickens and Blake. I love the way that the characters and fashions of London Below symbolise the amalgamated time bubbles of architecture and layers history that make up the real city. Small anecdotes like Old Bailey's reflections on the Square Mile are spot on. Walk through London at night yourself and you'll see how well Neverwhere evokes the spirit of ancient London town! Perhaps not as complex as American Gods or as fulfilling a story as Anansi Boys (perhaps due to being a TV show first), but richly envisaged and compellingly told all the same. I'd recommend both the above to anyone who enjoyed this!
