Neverwhere
Author - Neil Gaiman
From th Jacket:
Richard Mayhew is a plain man with a good heart - and an ordinary life that is changed forever on a day he stops to help a girl he finds bleeding on a London sidewalk. From that moment forward he is propelled into a world he never dreamed existed - a dark subculture flourishing in abandoned subway stations and sewer tunnels below the city - a world for stranger and more dangerous than the only one he has ever known.
This book didn't catch my interest at first. I had no interest in he main character or realy the main three. Gaiman, however, is a good story teller and I found myself wanting to know how he would resolve the latest plot twist.
I found that I was more interested to learn more about the stories two bad guys, where were they from originally, what was their history. There was one secondary character that I did like, but she wasn't in the story very long.
I would recommend this book if you want a different kind of story.
