Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman


Is it good?

I've read American Gods and really enjoyed it. Anise boys is sitting on my bookshelf, maybe I should read that next.


Yeah it is pretty good! Dark and twisted as usual with Gaiman. There's apparently a TV series of it from the early 90s which I'm gonna try and get hold of too.
Not read American Gods but I might give that it a go if you reckon its good. Have you read Coraline? If not, I definitely recommend that - it's my favourite of his books that I've read. It's sort of a children's story but really creepy and sinister.

The TV series came first. It's quite of its time and budget, but it's great. He then wrote the book as a result.
I can't see Paterson Joseph in anything without going 'ooh, it's the Marquis DeCarabas' now...

Gosh, haven't we been reading a lot in the last couple of years? Erm.
I just finished reading Accuracy of Death, a silly little story about a death god who has 7 days to judge if someone's appointed time of death is to go ahead. Silly, but good. The film also had Takeshi Kaneshiro being hot in it, though.

My holiday reading is the Millenium trilogy. Anyone had any more recommendations lately?

Last thing I read was Millennium. Rubbish casting for the film remake.

Apart from that...been taking a look at an old treasure-hunt book, and ordered another from Amazon. Why not immerse yourself in some vintage cryptoanalysis.

I love that the setter died, leaving an unsolved 28-year-old conundrum.

I know! As if it needed remaking at all anyway...

Just dipped into Stephen Fry's Moab is my Washpot to find the account of his speech in childhood. Highly dubious of me to diagnose cluttering from a decades-old account, but that is what I have done.
