Neil Gaiman Collection - 5 books

With Stories Come Possibilities

Neil Gaiman
Neil Gaiman is one of Britain’s leading fantasy writers with books that blend science fiction, fairy tales and mystery in rich, imaginative storytelling. The five books in our collection are Gaiman’s most iconic, now relaunched with new designs to celebrate the 20th anniversary of American Gods. All five novels transcend genres, combining the everyday with hidden worlds that can be underground, over the ancient town walls or in a neighbour’s pond. Slipcased. 

Neverwhere
Gaiman’s debut novel, based on the television series co-written with Lenny Henry, is an urban fantasy set in London Below, where Richard Mayhew helps an injured girl, then finds himself in an underground city filled with monsters, murderers and angels.

Stardust 
Tristan Thorn sets out on a quest to win a lady’s hand: he crosses into the magical land of Faerie, a world beyond the town walls, to bring back a fallen star for the beautiful girl who has won his heart. 

American Gods
Ex-convict Shadow and the mysterious Mr Wednesday embark on an epic road trip across America, searching for Old Gods, ancient mythological beings, to enlist them in a battle against the New Gods – divinities born of modern life.

Anansi Boys
After Fat Charlie’s dad dies of a heart attack while singing karaoke, the boy’s life is thrown into chaos. He learns that his father was an incarnation of the African spider-god Anansi, and a hitherto unknown brother arrives on his doorstep.

The Ocean at the End of the Lane
An unnamed narrator returns to his childhood home and recalls strange events of 40 years ago when, after a coin stuck in his throat, a girl helped him, but led him into a supernatural world and a pond that was really an ocean. Off-mint

'It's virtually impossible to read more than ten words by Neil Gaiman and not wish he would tell you the rest of the story' OBSERVER

A box set collection of five iconic novels by Neil Gaiman.

NEVERWHERE. STARDUST. AMERICAN GODS. ANANSI BOYS. THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE.

--

NEIL GAIMAN. WITH STORIES COME POSSIBILITIES.

'To give him his full title: Neil Gaiman, Architect of Worlds, Svengali of Plot, Shaman of Character, Exploder of Cliche, Master Craftsman of Style, Dreamer Laureate of the Republic of Letters' DAVID MITCHELL

'Beyond all the borders that divide us, there is a place of infinite possibilities and pure magic. I think of Neil Gaiman as a writer who wears the key to that land around his neck - the key to Storyland' ELIF SHAFAK

--

NEVERWHERE: Under the streets of London lies a world most people could never dream of. And for Richard Mayhew, it's just the beginning.

STARDUST: Young Tristran Thorn goes over his town's ancient wall into the mysterious land of Faerie - a world that is dangerous and strange beyond imagining . . .

AMERICAN GODS: A profoundly strange American road trip. War is coming, and Shadow Moon is standing
squarely in its path.

ANANSI BOYS: Everything changes for Fat Charlie Nancy, the South London boy so called by his father, the day his dad drops dead while doing karaoke.

THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE: The recollections of a man who thought he was lost but is now, perhaps, remembering a time when he was saved . . .
