  3. Review: "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" by Neil Gaiman

    Like modern fantasy authors from Lewis Carroll, George MacDonald and C. S. Lewis to Gene Wolfe and John Crowley, Neil Gaiman writes about the worlds on the edges of this one -- just off the map, a bit to the left, inaccessible without the right mirror or rabbit hole or wardrobe. In "The Sandman" (1989-1996), the comic book that made his name, Gaiman revived a forgotten Jack Kirby series from the '70s and wove a kind of Blakean mythology around a cast of archetypes known as the Endless: Dream, Death, Destiny, and the like -- figures who preside over realms that exist alongside our own. Gaiman's first novel, "Neverwhere" (1996), follows a young girl named Door through London Below, among the Rat-Speakers, across the Night's Bridge, to the Floating Market and the Black Friars. "Stardust" (1999) is set in Wall, on the border of Faerie. Similar premises underlie "American Gods" (2001), "Coraline" (2002) and the new "The Ocean at the End of the Lane."
