Neil Gaiman continues to impress and will always be a wordsmith. Neverwhere was beautifully put together with interesting characters.
My (only?) criticism is that the gore and violence really shone through, I understand this was written for a TV series but eh, could have been adjusted for the book. I’m sure lots of people didn’t have a problem with it. Maybe it’s a me thing.
Check your CWs/TWs.
Also the animal stuff wasn’t fun. The one character is always eating an animal (mice, kittens, puppies). Really left a bad feeling.
