The Ocean at the End of the Lane

From the creator of the famous "American Gods," "Neverwhere," and "Stardust." A captivating fairy tale-myth, a brilliantly told story of a lonely "bookish" boy, whose name the reader never learns, but in whom the traits of the author can be unmistakably recognized. A walk through the farms of Sussex leads the hero to the home of ancient gods playing with humans, and from that moment on, the fabric of the familiar world tears and turns inside out, and through the gap, creatures from another world penetrate — so strange and terrifying that they defy imagination.
