Neil Gaiman was born in England but now lives in Minneapolis, in a big house of uncertain location where he grows exotic pumpkins and accumulates computers and cats. His previous novels are NEVERWHERE, STARDUST and GOOD OMENS, which he wrote with Terry Pratchett. His graphic novels include the award-winning SANDMAN series, MR PUNCH, and DEATH: THE HIGH COST OF LIVING.
'A very fine and imaginative writer' -- The Times 'Gaiman has a rich imagination...and an ability to tackle large themes' -- Philip Pullman
