Neverwhere, Neil GaimanWhat an amazingly creative story Gaiman has written! A product of a profoundly gifted imagination, it will captivate readers who enjoy a bit of fantasy, a bit of science fiction. There are anthropomorphic creatures, monsters, and angels. There are characters whose names are symbolic of their special talent as in Lord Portico and his offspring, Door. There is pure evil as in Mr. Croup and his sidekick, Vandemar. Even the seemingly good characters have a touch of the “bad” in them. There is a fabulous character named Hunter, and she is aptly named. There is even an angel, Islington. The story seems to take place neither in the past, nor the present, nor the future. There are dreams and nightmares which exist in a time that seems outside of time. The locale seems to be around London, in Great Britain, but not a London we would recognize. Some of the characters live above in the world, and some live down under, below the world, in the underground.Richard Mayhew is a retiring young man engaged to a woman of a much stronger personality. One evening, he is on the way to a dinner with her boss when he finds a wounded young woman lying on the street. Against the wishes of Jessica, his fiancée, he abandons her and blows off the dinner, instead carrying the injured woman home to his apartment, hoping to help her. This sets an entire adventure into motion, and it will take the reader on a journey that will constantly twist and turn with tension and humor, lightness and gravity.The young woman’s name is Lady Door. Her family has recently been murdered by evil people. Door wants to find out who they are and avenge the brutal and senseless murders. Because Richard helped her, he has inexplicably become involved in her quest.
