Great story but expensive. I'm about half way through but so far it's great. If you like the other books by Gaimen then you'll love this. But...I think Apple needs to lower their prices. I could get this on paperback for less.

I will forever remember this book.. It’s magical and unexpectedly unique. I’ll continue to tell everyone about this book. I’m not usually a fan of magic or fantasy novels but decided to try this out after someone recommended it to me. It’s so deserving of a limited series and you’ll see why. It will never be enough...

Good. Good book, not great. A little predictable and formulaic.

Great book, damaged product. This is one of my favorite books. I decided to get the download for my iPad, thinking to read it again, only to discover that the first and second chapter (so far) are completely missing, and I can't seem to find any way to fix it. I'll keep trying, but it's very disappointing.

Awesome. I love the Graveyard Book - and I am an adult. This one is as awesome and magical and imaginative and ingenious.

Fresh Life Breathed into an Old Concept. This Review was first published on Kurt's Frontier. Synopsis: If you live in London, there is place so close you could reach out and touch it, yet could walk for a thousand miles and never reach. Under London, there is a place most of the citizenry of the city could never dream of. A place of monsters, saints, creatures of legend, and people who have fallen between the cracks. Richard Mayhew finds out more than he ever wanted to know about London. A simple act of kindness pulls him out of his everyday existence. He is now following a girl named Door and the Marquis de Carabas on a quest of discovery and revenge. A strange destiny awaits him. A battle against murderers and monsters. Review: What if there were a world that existed alongside our own. Suppose that a simple act could send a person in our world careening into the other. Richard Mayhew worked in a London office. He planned to marry a girl named Jessica. He could best be described as a doormat. Then he helps a girl from the other world. This simple act takes him into a world of magic and darkness but makes him a stranger to his own world. Neil Gaiman takes the reader into the magical world under London and somewhat out of phase. Richard finds that he no longer exists in his own world. To have any chance of getting back, he has to help Door on a quest of her own. Door is the oldest daughter of Lord Portico. She is the last survivor of her family, and she wants to find out who ordered them killed. The concept, while not entirely new, has had fresh life breathed into it. The imagery has a dark nature, but the pace is relatively modest. The story was quite enjoyable.

Eerie and interesting!. Loved it all, and in the audio version (Audible) Neil Gaiman narrates!

Kinda boring. Did I read the same book as everyone else?? I can't believe this book received so many good reviews. It was interesting and had potential with the plot and unusual/interesting characters (except for richard, his character was flat) but it kinda slow and just wasn't good. The author never explained y there was a London Below, how richard even got there, why the London below people had powers, why they were able to speak to rats - just so many questions left unexplained. Also Richard never asked these questions himself either which is just not a normal reaction to what happened to him.

Wonderful story of the flip side of London. Anyone who has ever wondered about what goes on behind the scenes of a city will find Neverwhere engrossing; it's a modern, urban fairy tale in the best sense of the term. Knights, damsels, beasts and quests... But in Gaiman's hands, nothing is EVER as it seems.

3.5 stars, but not 4 or higher. Neverwhere is an intriguing fantasy of a parallel world, London Below, beneath the real place that is dank, dirty and dangerous, filled with an amalgamation of odd characters and bizarre settings. Richard Mayhew, a young London businessman, inadvertently intersects with this world and thus falls out of London Above. The book follows his quest like journey to help the woman who got him here, Door, so he can return to his world. The book is engaging with fantastic illustrations. Yet, the two main characters were too wooden for me to really care what happened to them. And much of the story is a pastiche of overused tropes. Definitely an enjoyable read, just not as well done as some of Gaiman’s other work.

Absolutely Enchanting, Start to Finish. This was my second time readig Neverwhere, and I love this book! It's dark and thrilling and has wonderful characters. Gaiman's voice is descriptive and enticing, and builds momentum until I found it increasingly harder and harder to pull myself away. If you like dark fantasy, and the idea of a hidden world thriving off the underbelly of a modern urban setting, this book is definitely for you!

Definitely a must-read. Captivating, amazing concept written into a perfectly intriguing novel with relatable characters and epic adventure.

Read it in the 90’s. as a teen, now again. Still great. Was in a room with Neil Gaiman once..brag lol

Hold up!. If you are a fan of Sandman or of American Gods....keep reading. If not, I really don't care what you do (in the nicest possible way, of course). This is NOT the book you are looking for. Sorry Mr. Gaiman. Wow. Disappointment. Bad spin up on Alice in Wonderland, predictably set up on the darker side of things. Can't recommend it. At all. PS - loved Sandman and American Gods. Disappointed with all the rest of his work. Happy trails!

Compelling Read. A page turner and challenged my imagination. Really wish the ending wasn’t as abrupt as it was.

One of the greats. This is an amazing book. I had the fortune to run across this book in high school and 8 years later I'm still in love with this book. I've read it at least a dozen times and I look forward to reading it a dozen more.

Wonderful Story. Loved this book. A nice mix of fantasy and modern day told by a masterful story teller.

Dark & Mysterious. Great read, horrible transition from book to television (as usual) but what a great story - can be read to children and great for adults with creative minds. As always, simple but effective with Gaiman.

Neverwhere. Good story, I liked it

I want a sequel…. A wonderful fairytale. An immersive and adventurous ride through a world created by a rich imagination.

Uh. I bought this for less money in paperback at the bookstore!! What's going on iBooks??

Great book. First Gaiman book I read and it made me want to read all of his works and I’ve loved all the ones I picked up.

A sentimental favorite.. Not as polished as some later works, but still is one of my favorites.

Great book. Too short. Quickest I’ve ever read a book before.

Never where. Wonderful story! Difficult to put down. I was sorry to reach the end. David Transue MD

I was in Neverwhere. A week ago, I had never read anything by Neil Gaimon. After stumbling onto "Ocean at the End of the Lane" and devouring it, I next chose "Neverwhere" and could not put it down. Mr. Gaimon created an enchanting, albeit disturbing, world in London Below. I cared about the characters throughout and was thoroughly satisfied with how the story wrapped up. I'm a fan!

I wish it were longer!. Would love to read more stories within this world.

Amazing book, horrible price point iTunes. Apple and the publishers need to work a little harder here. We have a book here that deserves more than 5 stars, but I wish I could rate the store itself. Do yourself a favor and take a walk to your nearest brick and mortar bookstore and buy this amazing adventure for three bucks less and have in some sense actually own a copy. If there is no printer and all the copy editing, etc is done on a book, either someones getting greedy, or the authors are getting closer to what they deserve. Somehow I doubt it's the latter

Read!. This was brilliant. Do something nice for yourself and read it.

A good read. I really liked this story! Not the best book I've ever read but it was very interesting and creative and kept me intrigued. I would definitely recommend this for anyone looking for something to read. It's a bit dark but I enjoyed it.

Captivating!. Excellent, interesting story. Worth the money from iBooks! I've read other books by Neil Gaiman and all have been enjoyable. Please, Sir, may I have more?

Wonderful!. The best Neil Gaiman book I've ever read. Even though I couldn't get through American Gods I decided to try another of his books and am glad I did. Neverwhere is one of my all time favorites.

Oddball & intriguing. A range of oddball and interesting characters each with their own motives, histories and flaws. Gaiman weaves them into a tight and intriguing tale I couldn't put down.

Amazing story..... I must have read this dozens of time... Classic! Heart-Warming, spooky, dark yet beautiful story... All at once! I want to travel London Underground! Take me with you!!!!! :)

Delightful!. Excellent read: a mix of Douglas Adams and Tim Burton... Very nicely done!

Give this a try and you'll be hooked from the opening words. Trust me. Read this book

Great!. One of my favourite stories of all time! Really interesting and gripping story.
