Not to turn this into a Neil Gaiman thread but yeah, I've heard nothing but good things about Good Omens. More whimsical really? The thing I loved about Neverwhere was that it was dark and serious, but whimsical at the same time. Such a perfect fantasy book. And it was so
detailed. They described the underground world in such detail, like croup and vandemars abandoned hospital.
Anyway, I've gotta read it someday. Only book of his I didn't like was Stardust. It was a bit TOO whimsical and generic fairy tale for my tastes. Man I really am a picky bastard
