When Richard Mayhew helps a girl named Door bleeding, little did he know that she would open the Door to another world for him, changing his life. Fantastic world building, tying in the world Richard knows and the one that Door is apart of. Neil Gaiman is my favorite author, but I think this book was a little too slow for me and I found myself having to push to finish it, especially since it was a dark story and it was hard to like the characters.
