Description
Nobody Owens, known to his friends as Bod, is a perfectly normal boy. Well, almost normal—if you overlook the fact that he lives in a graveyard, raised and educated by ghosts. His solitary guardian belongs to neither the living nor the dead. The graveyard offers Bod many dangers and adventures: the sinister menace of the Sleer, a gravestone that opens to a desert leading to the city of ghouls, and even friendship with a witch. Yet, true peril awaits in the world of the living, where the man Jack, who has already killed Bod’s family, still lurks. This deliciously dark masterpiece by bestselling author Neil Gaiman is enhanced by the award-winning illustrations of Dave McKean.
