Probably my second favourite Neil Gaiman novel. I'd also recommend the graphic novel it was adapted into.

Richard Mayhew is a young man with a good heart and an ordinarylife, which is changed forever when he stops to help a girl he finds bleeding on a London sidewalk. His small act of kindness propels him into a world he never dreamed existed. There are people who fall through the cracks, and Richard has become one of them. And he must learn to survive in this city of shadows and darkness, monsters and saints, murderers and angels, if he is ever to return to the London that he knew.
Fun, exciting, and creative, just like all of Neil's stuff!
Reading this made me feel like a little kid, hearing fairy tales for the first time. Well worth a read.
Like many Gaiman novels, it sucks you in quickly around the theme of where reality and unreality meet. His forte. But a bit comic-booky in the middle and end.
Wonderful book. Enjoyable, with a nice quick flowing form and cheeky fun filled with a wild adventurous and unique spirit.
