I'm officially in love with Neil Gaiman
Jan. 5th, 2009 01:37 amJust... could Neverwhere be anymore awesome? At all? On any level ever? 'Cos I think I'm more than a little in love with this book and almost-believability of its magic and its cleverness and wry humor and badassness and, damn, I want to be Richard but with less broken fingers (and shoulders and ribs...) and to get to know that world.
I think I like this one more than American Gods, probably because I've always favored the intimate getting-to-know process of a character and a world rather than a vague sort of Shadow and the heart of America and all that.
You think if I cross my fingers and turn widdershins three times, we'll get a sequel?

I mean, really, we still don't know about 95% of London Below, and who exactly Serpentine is beside the Bogeyman, and where Door's sister is (because we know she's alive, not because Islington said she was but because it's implied much earlier) and why she wasn't enough, or what Hunter's curse was, or what's going to happen with the Earl being senile, andandand *goes on for hours*
Perhaps if I bombard his blog with e-mails he might answer eventually, since he seems to answer fanmail things?
