![]() ![]() ![]() I have yet to read anything by Neil Gaiman that I didn't like, American Gods and Neverwhere are both favourites of mine while Good Omens co-written with Sir Terry Pratchett was just fantastic. There are plenty of distractions and adventures for a growing boy but if Bod ever left the graveyard, he would risk coming under attack from a man called Jack, the man who has already killed Bod's family and still looks to complete the job. ![]() Growing up in a sprawling graveyard - now used by the locals as a "beauty spot", Nobody (Bod to his friends) is educated by ghosts and looked after by a solitary guardian who skirts the void between the living and the dead. Taking pity on the innocent child the ghosts agree to raise him as their own, naming him Nobody Owens and giving him the freedom of this eternal home. Following the horrific murder of his entire family, a toddler wanders into a dis-used graveyard populated by ghosts and other undead creatures of the night - completely unaware of the death of his parents. ![]()
