The Ocean at the End of the Lane

The one who wrote Coraline, and co-wrote the book of Good Omens and made the TV show, also the Sandman comics writer and co-creator who made the Sandman TV show. Quite nice really.

The Ocean at the End of the Lane

valya-dudycz-lupescu:

The reviews for Neil Gaiman’s new novel, The Ocean at the End of the Lane, are starting to pop up on Goodreads. I loved it and thought I’d add my review to the mix:
The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my favorite of Neil Gaiman’s books so far—a haunting novel about sacrifice, boundaries, and things remembered. So many twisted and tattered new characters to get into our heads and under our skin. Once again, Neil does what he does so well: he takes us by the hand and introduces us to a dark, tangled corner of the universe full of things that make us shiver and hold our breath in the dark.

Authentic and compelling, there’s much beneath the surface of The Ocean at the End of the Lane. Like a secret whispered in the shadows by a trusted friend, it gets inside of us, and it lingers.
(The novel will be released on June 18, 2013, but you can pre-order your copy on Amazon or through your local bookstore.)
