Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman

I have read a lot of Neil Gaimans graphic novels, but never one of his books. I love his graphic novel work because it is something new, really renewing the genre. I liked this book of his, but I did not think it was so innovating as his graphic novel work. One way or another, when reading this book I could feel that the text was intended for a televisionseries.
This book would be nice to read on a holiday in London-above, journeying through the same places and underground stations as the book.
