Fantasy author Neil Gaiman¿s 1996 novel Neverwhere is not just a marvelous self-contained novel, but a terrifically useful text for introducing students to fantasy as a genre and issues of adaptation. Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock¿s briskly written A Critical Companion to Neil Gaiman¿s Neverwhere offers an introduction to the work, situates it in relation to the fantasy genre, with attention in particular to the Herös Journey, urban fantasy, word play, social critique, and contemporary fantasy trends, and explores it as a case study in transmedial adaptation. The study ends with an interview with Neil Gaiman that addresses the novel and a bibliography of scholarly works on Gaiman.
