- Neil Gaiman has written in a dizzying number of genres and formats, meeting critical and popular success in all of them. His characters are memorable and complex, and find themselves in surreal, often supernatural, settings. Gaiman evokes a creepy, sometimes horrifying, atmosphere, but balances this with whimsical interludes and comic relief. The novels are complex, with frequent use of literary and cultural references. Despite their complexity, Gaiman's prose is straightforward and reader-friendly, and the stories move quickly with multiple storylines resolving just in the nick of time. Start with: The Sandman: Preludes & nocturnes (Adults); The Graveyard Book (Older Kids)
