I make things up and write them down. Which takes us from comics (like SANDMAN) to novels (like ANANSI BOYS and AMERICAN GODS) to short stories (some are collected in SMOKE AND MIRRORS) and to occasionally movies (like Dave McKean's MIRRORMASK or the NEVERWHERE TV series, or my own short film A SHORT FILM ABOUT JOHN BOLTON).
In my spare time I read and sleep and eat and try to keep the blog at www.neilgaiman.com more or less up to date.
Under the streets of London there's a world most people could never even dream of - a city of monsters and saints, murderers and angels, and pale girls in black velvet. Richard Mayhew is a young businessman who is about to find out more than he bargained for about this other London. A single act of kindness catapults him out of his safe and predictable life and into a world that is at once eerily familiar and yet utterly bizarre. There's a girl named Door, an Angel called Islington, an Earl who holds Court on the carriage of a Tube train, a Beast in a labyrinth, and dangers and delights beyond imagining...And Richard, who only wants to go home, is to find a strange destiny waiting for him below the streets of his native city. This title includes extra material exclusive to Headline Review's edition.

總覺得《Never Where》是本新書,可迴頭瞅瞅,距離尼爾·蓋曼為BBC寫《Never Where》的原作劇本已經過去十二年瞭,這部六集長的係列劇如果放在今天,大約可以算是一部精巧細緻的迷你劇,說不定還會拍第二季第三季。如果你願意,verycd上還有它的種子,隻是甚少有源上綫。三年前...

評分2016年,科幻作傢郝景芳的小說《北京摺疊》獲得第74屆雨果奬最佳中短篇小說奬。小說講述瞭22世紀的北京,按照社會階層被分成三個空間, 48小時的時間按照比例分配給三個空間的人。 獲奬消息一齣,有不少人站齣來說“北京早已摺疊”,上層、中産和底層三個階層的人的物質生活和...

一場貨真價實的quest是最好的治愈。喜歡這個故事。作者對倫敦的情書。
評分Plot is okay-ish, I guess that's the same problem with all Gaiman stories, the settings, however, are quite novel and intriguing. There is an Earl at Earl's Count, an Angel Islington, real Black Friars, and oh my how I like the Old Bailey! But this could only happen in London tho, because London has a heart big enough for all things eccentric.
評分講真,audiobook 和電影一樣,一定得一氣嗬成,斷斷續續要漏掉好多原味...
評分Neil Gailman真是會講故事,下倫敦的設定也很接地氣,不過比起後來的美國眾神還是略顯簡單。
評分not so fun as i've expected ... but still worth reading...a novel of betrayal, revenge and self-value realization;Chances are that anyone may unlock the door and fall into the crack down to the fancied world. Then after a seemingly infinite odyssey , the world dissolves, and one quits. All is nothing more than a long sweet nightmare.
