Publisher's Summary
Beneath the streets of London there is another London. A subterranean labyrinth of sewers and abandoned tube stations. A somewhere that is Neverwhere.... An act of kindness sees Richard Mayhew catapulted from his ordinary life into the strange world of London Below. There he meets the Earl of Earl's Court, faces a life-threatening ordeal at the hands of the Black Friars, comes face to face with the Great Beast of London, and encounters an Angel. Called Islington. Accompanied by the mysterious Door and her companions, the Marquis de Carabas and the bodyguard Hunter, Richard embarks on an extraordinary quest to escape from the fiendish assassins Croup and Vandemar and to discover who ordered them to murder her family - all the while trying to get back to his old life in London Above. Adapted for radio by the award-winning Dirk Maggs, this captivating dramatisation features a stellar cast including David Harewood, Sophie Okonedo, Benedict Cumberbatch, Christopher Lee, Anthony Head and David Schofield. Contains over 25 minutes of additional unbroadcast material, including extended scenes, bloopers and outtakes.

A brilliant adaptation with fantastic actors. They really brought it alive. I particularly lived Anthony Head, very reminiscent of Mr Benevolent. Love love loved it.

Loved it!
This was excellent and I really enjoyed it.
The only thing I didn’t like was that the cast for each chapter is listed at the end of every chapter. I found it broke the flow, and could be a big list read at the end. Other than that, I loved it!

Fabulous
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
This is a brilliant audio production. So many great voices in the cast. Go check the names and listen. (The first couple of minutes plunge you right into the adventure. Be patient. It'll all become clear.)

Creative Masterpiece
I am a huge fan of Neil Gaiman and Neverwhere does not disappoint. His imagination is well supported by the superb cast of narrators. I hope this saga will continue. This style of storytelling stimulates the mind like an illicit drug & I am graving more.

Short, sharp and intriguing
Polished performance by a high-powered cast of a dark, creative urban fantasy which delights in turning your everyday understanding of modern London on its head. Chapter 7 is the out-takes - if this isn't your thing, skip through to the last couple of minutes as the last out-take and the final piece of music are worthwhile.
