Richard Mayhew is a young man with a good heart and an ordinary life, which is changed forever when he stops to help a girl he finds bleeding on a London sidewalk. His small act of kindness propels him into a world he never dreamed existed. There are people who fall through the cracks, and Richard has become one of them. And he must learn to survive in this city of shadows and darkness, monsters and saints, murderers and angels, if he is ever to return to the London that he knew.

Challenged to retrieve a fallen star, Tristran Thorn leaves the sleepy English village of Wall and crosses into the land of Faerie and the realm of Stormhold. Locating the star, he discovers it is no meteorite but a young woman, Yvaine. When Yvaine evades him and escapes, Tristran discovers he is not the only one in pursuit of the star: there are dark forces in this magical land, and he must find Yvaine before she falls into their clutches.

Story
A middle-aged man returns to his childhood home to attend a funeral. He is drawn to the farm at the end of the road, where, when he was seven, he encountered a most remarkable girl, Lettie Hempstock. Forty years earlier, a man committed suicide in a stolen car at this farm at the end of the road. Like a fuse on a firework, his death lit a touchpaper and resonated in unimaginable ways. The darkness was unleashed, something scary and thoroughly incomprehensible to a little boy. And Lettie - magical, comforting, wise beyond her years - promised to protect him, no matter what.

Phenomenal
The only thing that better the incredible story in this book is Neil Gaiman narrating it. His silky voice breaths life into the words and through subtle voice changes makes you visualize the world that he has created.
An immaculate perspective on life and death will make you fall in love with the characters and their journey.
I highly recommend you embrace this book as you will not be disappointed.

Cozy, loving adventures
I’ve listened to this book dozens, if not hundreds of times both as a kid and as an adult. Neil Gaiman has such a wonderful, soothing voice and his characters are all neurodivergent as hell.
Join Bod as he grows up and stumbles his way through life with the help and understanding of his loving family and friends. I think we all need this kind of support and unconditional acceptance in our lives.

As good as Harry Potter!? I'd say YES!
If you liked Harry Potter you will like this book!
It gave me that same feeling as when I first read Harry Potter; that feeling of being transported into a new word, and the accompanying surprise and captivation by all that it had to offer. With new and interesting and imaginative characters, creatures and villains that all blend together for a story that leaves you wanting more and more.
Despite being a kids novel, I think any demographic will appreciate the writing and imagination here. Gaiman does a fantastic job of narrating the novel and embodying the different characters so that you can see, feel and hear them as though they stood in front of you. Also, the musical interludes between chapters were an unexpected and delightful touch.
This is my first review ever but I feel The Graveyard Book deserves it. I've listened to this audio book twice now and recommend it to everyone with ears that'll listen. I have 20+ Audible books in my library #Audible1 and this book stands out among the rest. I really hope this book takes off and sequal is written soon. Thank you Mr. Gaiman for you wonderful novel, and thank you "reader" for taking the time to read my comment. I really hope you enjoy this novel as much as I did.
