▾LibraryThing Anbefalinger   22 2WilliamPascoe: Phenominally brilliant fantasy . 160 Anansi Boys af Neil Gaiman (elbakerone)2510 Håndbog for vakse galakse-blaffere af Douglas Adams (souloftherose)souloftherose: Although Neverwhere and The Hitchhiker's Guide (THHG) are different genres (the first is urban fantasy, the second comic science-fiction) I felt there was a lot of similarity between the characters of Richard Mayhew (in Neverwhere) and Arthur Dent (in THHG). Both are a kind of everyman with whom the reader can identify and both embody a certain 'Britishness'. And they're both stonkingly good books by British authors.… (mere) 121 Non Lon Don af China Miéville (elbakerone, ahstrick)111 Kraken af China Miéville (fugitive)fugitive: Another urban fantasy vision of London. 100 Rivers of London af Ben Aaronovitch (riverwillow)riverwillow: Both 'Neverwhere' and 'Rivers of London' (US title 'Midnight Riot') evoke a magical fairy tale London which sometimes feels more authentic then any real life guide to the city. 91 The Ocean at the End of the Lane af Neil Gaiman (riverwillow)80 Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking-Glass and Alice's Adventures Under Ground af Lewis Carroll (sturlington)sturlington: Neverwhere is a lot like a grown-up's Wonderland, and the two stories have a similar, surrealistic feel. 84 Stormfront af Jim Butcher (Polenth)40 Gloriana af Michael Moorcock (ed.pendragon)ed.pendragon: Both fantasy titles explore the seedy underbelly of London, one in Tudor times, the other more recently in London Below. 40 Whispers Underground af Ben Aaronovitch (Jannes)Jannes: For all your "supernatural secrets in the London underground"-needs. 51 Something from the Nightside af Simon R. Green (Phantasma)Phantasma: The nightside novels are a little darker, but if you like the ideas presented in Neverwhere, you'll most likely enjoy the Nightside (actually, I prefer the Nightside and it's gritty dark humor). 30 Metro 2033: Det sidste tilflugtssted af Dmitry Glukhovsky (Navarone)30 The Secret History of Moscow af Ekaterina Sedia (elbakerone, parasolofdoom)20 The Mysteries af Lisa Tuttle (ehines)ehines: Regular guy stumbles into the secret realm. In Neverwhere this secret realm is very much a London one; in the Mysteries it is decidedly an old Celtic one. Also Never where turns into a full-blown fantasy adventure, while the Mysteries stays mostly realistic. 20 The Water Room af Christopher Fowler (benfulton)benfulton: Explorations of the hidden parts of London. 31 Amuletten fra Samarkand af Jonathan Stroud (Steveh15)20 Gog af Andrew Sinclair (ed.pendragon)ed.pendragon: Fantasy mixing late 20th century London with fairytale, myth and menace. 42 The Good Fairies of New York af Martin Millar (themephi)20 The Book of Lost Things af John Connolly (Headinherbooks_27, Headinherbooks_27)

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. I have never been to St. John's Wood. I dare not. I should be afraid of the innumerable night of fir trees, afraid to come upon a blood red cup and the beating of the wings of the Eagle.
– The Napoleon of Notting Hill, G. K. Chesterton  If ever though gavest hosen or shoon
Then every night and all
Sit thou down and put them on
And Christ receive thy soul
This aye night, this aye night
Every night and all
Fire and fleet and candlelight
And Christ receive thy soul
If ever thou gavest meat or drink
Then every night and all
The fire shall never make thee shrink
And Christ receive thy soul

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. "It starts with doors." "You've a good heart," she told him. "Sometimes that's enough to see you safe wherever you go." Then she shook her head. "But mostly, it's not." There are four simple ways for the observant to tell Mr. Croup and Mr. Vandemar apart: first, Mr. Vandemar is two and a half heads taller than Mr. Croup; secnod, Mr. Croup has eyes of a faded china blue, while Mr. Vandemar's eyes are brown; third, while Mr. Vandemar fashioned the rings he wears on his right hand out of the skulls of four ravens, Mr. Croup has no obvious jewelry; fourth, Mr. Croup likes words, while Mr. Vandemar is always hungry. Also, they look nothing at all alike. He continued, slowly, by a process of osmosis and white knowledge (which is like white noise, only more useful)... It was a good place, and a fine city, but there is a price to be paid for all good places, and a price that all good places have to pay. Richard had noticed that events were cowards: they didn't occur singly, but instead they would run in packs and leap out at him all at once. Richard began to understand darkness: darkness as something solid and real, so much more than a simple absence of light. He felt it touch his skin, questing, moving, exploring: gliding through his mind. It slipped into his lungs, behind his eyes, into his mouth... "I have always felt," he said, "that violence was the last refuge of the incompetent, and empty threats the final sanctuary of the terminally inept." "As old as my tongue," said Hunter, primly, "and a little older than my teeth." So the day became one of waiting, which was, he knew, a sin: moments were to be experienced; waiting was a sin against both the time that was still to come and the moments one was currently disregarding. "With cities, as with people, Mister Vandemar," said Mr. Croup, fastidiously, "the condition of the bowels is all-important." "Have you ever got everything you ever wanted? And then realized it wasn't what you wanted at all?" "I thought I wanted a nice, normal life. I mean, maybe I am crazy. I mean, maybe. But if this is all there is, then I don't want to be sane. You know?" | |
