Neil Gaiman In the next few slides, there will be some of the books that Neil Gaiman wrote. I will conclude a brief summary about the book.

Coraline The day after they moved in, Coraline went exploring in Coraline's family's new flat. Thirteen of the doors open and close. The fourteenth is locked, and on the other side is only a brick wall, until the day Coraline unlocks the door to find a passage to another flat in another house just like her own.

The Graveyard Book Nobody Owens, known to his friends as Bod, is a normal boy. He would be completely normal if he didn't live in a graveyard, being raised and educated by ghosts, with a guardian who belongs to neither the world of the living or of the dead.

Stardust Neil Gaiman wrote this book to honor the simpler fairy tales, and fantasies of times past, where a town was taken to a magical place and a person could wonder without restraint if he or she chose.

The Sandman This book is a book of dreams, it isn’t really a comic, or a graphic novel. I would suppose it is an anthonology of short stories.

American Gods A man named Shadow is serving the last days of a three-year assault, he is relieved that he will soon be joining his beloved wife and their interrupted life.

The Facts In the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch “Miss Finch” is narrated by a man who never tells us his name, a writer very much like Neil Gaiman. He’s an Englishman, back in London for a short time to write a film script in peace and semi-secrecy.

Neverwhere This book is a fantasy that first aired in 1996, this series is in set in London. It’s a magical realm existing with the more familiar London, it was devised by Neil Gaiman and Lenny Henry.

Good Omens It is a book about a two angels one fallen and one still standing and their latest job assignment. Good Omens uses the circumstances to explore the idea of what it means to be good, evil, most of all, human.
