amber lynham, melton mowbray
Anyone wanting find an author as amazing as Neil should check out Clive Barker, both fanastique writers and both utterly amazing.
Dean, Sydney
Great fan of your work just wondering if you had any tips for comic book writing which I intend to go into (obviously get the jobs and find my way myself) but any tips would be fine. Take care

I am gutted that i did not know about Neils appearance last night at the book festival. Considering i have read many of his books and would have loved to have heard him speak and maybe even get my absolute sandman volume 1 signed. I hear Neil was fantastic aswell as rankin. I liv in the city and really would love to see him and if ever there was a chance iblew it! i would love to know if there's anymore events Neil will be at in the future.
Conor Murray-Gauld, Edinburgh
Was along at last nights event at Edinburgh book festival as Taxi driver for daughter. Am not ashamed to say it was a case of Ian Rankin and who (sorry Neil) but what a thoroughly enlightening entertaining and interesting evening from two guys obviously passionate about what they do. You may have encouraged me to visit that section at back of bookshop you talked about and spend some money thanks

My most precious of all worldly peoples introduced me to Neverwhere on my birthday last December and I have been hooked on your work since. My most precious of all worldly peoples is not there any more, not really, but the remainder of your work I have not read yet still is. Black clouds and silver linings and all that...
Paul, Aberdeen
I am currently hooked on Smoke and Mirrors and last night when I read Dont Ask Jack a shiver literally ran down my spine, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you very much, Mr. Gaiman, you are a tremendous demon in disguise.
Sammy, Cambridge
Hi Guys,
I have read ALL of Neils books and am now feeling a little lost as I have nothing to read now! Can any one please suggest another Author similar in style to Neil Gaiman? Please dont say Stephanie Mayer....
All suggestions would be most welcomed!
Thanks
Note for Neil: Please hurry up and write another book! :)

Only read three but they are AMAZING. To the bemusment of my friends my favourite character in The Graveyard Book is Carstairs, but I love Silas too.
Molly, Manchester

bob, essex
Normally an avid reader i have just listened to the Graveyard book which was excellent!!!I have to say Neils voice is hypnotic and was part of my decision to buy it.. so I have just bought Stardust and Fragile Things on audio too,keeps me company while i drive... Thanks Neil for your decision to narrate your own books!!
Gill, sunderland
I have just finished reading The Graveyard book, and I would have to say, as a huge Neil Gaiman fan, I am not dissapointed. Simple to read, but yet rich with detail and unexpected twists. Only Neil can weave a seemingly boring story about a boy in a graveyard into a masterpiece.
Top notch, highly recommended.

Hi, I have just posted an audio interview with Neil from The Graveyard Book tour in Edinburgh here: http://www.scottishbooktrust.com/podcasts/audio/neil-gaiman-the-graveyard-book

I've just seen this movie by some friends who have never even heard of "Fragile Things". Being a HUGE Neil Gaiman fan, I find the similarities between the characters and the ones in "Keepsakes & Treasures" (and the final story Neil plans to write with them) really creepy.
Luis, Dundee
Greetings... For all you fans out there, I have some Coraline trailers posted on my YouTube page. If you like, please visit http://www.youtube.com/mtrippe

I have to say I am a big fan of Neil Gaiman's books. The first one I read was Coraline when I was in primary school and it had me hooked. Now I'm a little older (15) I enjoy reading many of his books. At the moment I am reading American Gods which is fantastic, I'm only on the second chapter and I'm compleatly addicted. If I had to pick a favorite author it would have to be Neil. I find his books totally mental and that's why I love them!

I would like to thank Mr. Gaiman for his wonderful contribution to the literary world, and for the enrichment that I have found in his stories. I have always wanted to write, and it was in reading Smoke and Mirrors that I was inspired to begin to write. So thank you Neil Gaiman, I wish you all the best. Blake.

I only came across Neverwhere by chance. I found myself looking for a present for a friend and picked up the latest addition of Neverwhere. Once he had finished it he came to me and advised that I went back to the store and bought my own copy, intrigued I did. After that I moved on to Stardust, American Gods, Good Omens (I am a big Pratchett fan as well), Anansi Boys (which I now have on CD) and I am currently half way through Smoke and Mirrors. I have not enjoyed many books to the extent that I have enjoyed these, they among the few books that I have not only been able to read twice but several times.
Sam Williams, Devizes
Having only read "Good Omens" and seen "Neverwhere" I was unaware of just how much great stuff Neil has produced. I am just about to start a new job in the middle east so I will e taking an arm full of his books with me as I am lost without something to read. A friend of mine wants to write the stage play for "Good Omens" and he has me pictured as "Crawley" well if he gets permission to do it he will have to wait two years before I am back in the country.
martin doy, Gosport Hampshire
The Sandman series (especially the japanese variant), Lucifer, Good Omens, American Gods, Stardust. Could go on for a while but it is most subsinctly put to say that he has a rare understanding of both human nature and the underlying mythic substructure which pervades our unconscious. In short a storyteller, bard, skald of almost unsurpassed brilliance
Stephen
I just wanted to thank you and Dave Mckean for inspiring me immensely. Sandman will always be a true companion, keepsake and guide.

I am LOVING Neils books since picking them up for the first time about three months ago. I read Anansi Boys first which is a laugh out loud book, easy to pick up and get lost in, like any good yarn should be!), then American Gods - yes, it is the masterpiece everyone claims it is (Shadow is a fantastic character). Then Fragile Things which I am gradually dipping into and find very thought-provoking, and I have just finished Neverwhere which I simply could not put down. Next time I visit London I will be looing out for the cracks!!! I love the worlds Neil creates as they are so vivid and imaginative, recreated with love and humour. I feel sad every time I finish one of his books. Cannot wait for the next one (any chance of a sequel to Neverwhere, Neil?) Thank you for restoring my faith in the power and joy of reading books. Much love.
Kate, Ickleton, Cambs
On the back of reading the Sandman series (which I loved) I read American Gods and was blown away. This is my favourite book of all time and I urge you all to read it.
matt, Aldershot
Sandman is perhaps the greatest graphic novel series written. Mr.Gaiman is 'the prince of stories'.
I hope he comes to India soon as we have a rich mythical culture out here as well.
He's offered me an impetus to continue writing graphic novel scripts and stories.
Aakash Bhatia, India
(Excuse me for my english, I'm french)
I just want to thank you for what you bring to my evenings, before sleeping, when I turn on a small light and I completly dive into Gaiman's universe! I mean that each of Gaiman's book is a masterpiece, a ticket to an awaken dream (does that mean anything?) and merci beaucoup!
(I've read some books in french and some others in original version, to my point of view the french translation is very good, but i'm still sad that books are released much later in France...)
Leslie, Lyon, France
Ever thought of doing an illustrated version of Stardust?
It would be amazing
I absolutely loved that book.
cat, wales
Ever since I read his Sandman series, I have been in awe of the man. He is truly a genius of the ages. He introduced me to my favourite word 'sinople' which comes in handy because I am colourblind and can't see the sinople colours. Thank you.
Bek Hobbes, Exeter
i love your books

LOVE LOVE LOVE Anansi Boys!!! I purchased it after having read Coraline. I couldn't put it down, enjoyed the colourful characters and fantastic humour, and have given it to my daughter to read, as I am sure she will be enchanted as well. I can't wait to buy & read American Gods.
Yvonne, Beamsville, Ontario
Wow you all really love Neil Gaiman don't you. I just read Anansi boys which I did enjoy but found the first half a bit flat, not enough imagery, I wasn't lost in a world I normally get lost in when I read. It wasn't till the story moved to Jamaica that I got a bit more exciting, may be it was the change in climate from cold grey London to warm exotic Jamaica that warmed things up for me. Or maybe this reflects Charlie reclaiming his Spider side becoming a more vibrant being. If so this does show rather good penmanship if not then the first half was really quite flat and uninteresting. What do you think?
steph, Torquay
Hi Neil, I wish you could visit Salvador. I'm sure you would love it. It is a city where you could find the most unusual people and religions all mixed-up. When I readed American Gods, it reminded me a lot of Savador, that's called Black Rome. We were a land of proud indians, that didn't submit then selves to slavery. And the Europeans, most from Portugal, bringed the african slaves then. A people so proud of their religion and culture, that survived slavery and now are the soul of this city. What I saw of Salvador in your book was this, the hopeful view of surviving and pride. Thanks and sorry about my poor English skills.
Thiago Leão, Salvador, Bahia, Brasil.
Neverwhere is truly one of the most enchanting and enthralling story that I have ever read - I loved it! Is there going to be a sequel? I was sad when I finished reading it and actually miss the characters. Is there a production on DVD? Thank you Neil for your incredible imagination. I am also a huge fan of Death and Sandman.
Thank you.
Reynolds, Sun City, CA
NEVERWHERE needs a sequel. I need to know what happens next! Gaiman always seems to leave you wanting more for me. It all started with the Sandman comics and then NEVERWHERE left me thinking what do I read next?
Safron Austin, london
When I was 18 I entered a comic book store for the first time with a Superman-freak friend of mine. While she was browsing through the Krypton-area I amused myself by gawking at the display of the latest hot genre: GRAPHIC NOVELS! Even though I couldn't open (and certainly couldn't afford) any of the items on display, one series stood out beyond ALL the others. SANDMAN! I was so impressed.
Alexander, Cape Town
U sir, hav Gained another addict !! wOw ! Thank-U
Madeena, Randburg
Neil writes from the imaginative point of reference that doesn't make you feel you're drowning in images! I can put my own imagination to use (Spider looks like Cat from Red Dwarf to me!). Doesn't dumb down and doesn't lose me half way through with clever-clever. I like his intellegence and humour, recognising that amongst the heavy literary and fantasy stuff we/I read, I also like a Jilly Cooper! I love Anansi Boys (what about Iktomi and Q?). (Good companion book would be 'It' by Stephen King).
Jools, South Shields, UK
I first read Good Omens 4 years ago, have been hooked since then..
You gotta love this guys style.. .
mike sullivan, Plymouth
I first read Good Omens (on the back of reading many a Terry Pratchett novel) about 5 years ago and fell in love with it utterly. Then Neverwhere came along and just took the biscuit. Probably my favourite book of all time....until I read Anansi Boys. Neil - I take my hat off to you, do a deep bow and hope one day to meet you and shake you by the hand for being so gosh-darned fabulous. :)
Meg, Southend on Sea
Neverwhere must be one of the best books I've ever read from an author I've never heard of - can't wait to read more.
My husband had it given as a present for our wedding anniversary and he couldn't put it down! This a MUST READ BOOK!
Bev, Blackpool
Just read Neverwhere - can't wait to read the rest. One of the best books I've read in the last ten years.
Paul R, Blackpool
read 'Good Omens' a few years ago and loved it! my dad got me 'American Gods' for Christmas, loved that too! a good friend got me 'Neverwhere' (I got him 'American Gods', for his!) for my birthday on Saturday, am now in the middle and am loving it as much as the others! (oh and, while getting my copy of Good Omens signed by Terry Pratchett, he told me to say hi to Neil if I ever met him... I'm still waiting to deliver the message in person!) Can't wait to read more!
Niamh, Bray, near Dublin
Where can I get the BBC production of Neverwhere on dvd ? Can anyone help?
Top'arf, london
I discovered Gaiman with comics,as almost everybody else. The I got to read "Good Omens" and I loved it, it's hilarious. Right now I'm with "American Gods" and I can't stop reading it... and still waiting "Neverwhere"
Antonio, Santander
I first discovered Gaiman's works last year, while I spent my holidays in Finland (Gaiman not being translated yet into Romanian). I found Neverwhere, Stardust, and Coraline in a bookstore, bought them, and fell in love with the richness of his writing. Yes, last year it was the "Gaiman year" for me. Now I'm happy to tell you that I convinced one friend of mine from UK to buy the other books and go to one of his book signings for me. I can hardly wait to receive his other works!
Catalin Sandu, Iasi, Romania
Neil Gaiman will be signing copies of his new book on Monday 14th November, 12.30 at Waterstone Bookstore, Union Street, Bristol, UK
Ann, Bristol
I've collected as much Neil Gaiman as I have been able to get my hands on over the last ten years (almost 200 items!) I had to pull a few strings to get these extended versions in the U.S., but it was definitely worth the trouble. Gaiman is the best!
Jeffrey, Chicago, USA
Oh my, he\'s coming to Bath! Now, if only I can convince my parents to let me have the day off college ...
Zoe, Devon
I hope Neil comes back to the UK soon - I'd love to go to a signing! Don't desert us forever ...
I practically know Good Omens off by heart - it's my favourite book. I just finished re-reading American Gods and am pretty excited about Anansi Boys. Roll on the paperback Tube-friendly edition!
Jo, London
American Gods is epic, Neverwhere is brilliant. I'm collecting the comic series. Can't wait to get my hands on Anansi Boys!
Mark, Basildon
If you're from London then read Neverwhere. If you want something funny then read 'Good Omens', a fantastic book about the apocalypse that was co-written but that other funny englishman Terry Pratchett. All the rest are good as well, and it's probably worth looking at Neil's blog to find out more about the man, his daily life and a black cat called Fred.
Brendon, London
Read American Gods. It\'s a fantastic epic, and Mr Nancy appears there too!
Flora, London
Anansi Boys is great. I can't wait to start reading the others - where should I start?
