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 books include, NEVERWHERE, STARDUST, SMOKE AND MIRRORS, and the New York Times bestseller AMERICAN GODS, which won the Hugo, Nebula, Bram Stoker, SFX and Locus awards.
'A very fine and imaginative writer' -- The Times 'Gaiman has a rich imagination...and an ability to tackle large themes' -- Philip Pullman
