With his recent novel, Norse Mythology, topping the bestseller lists, Neil Gaiman has just announced his next novel. Neil’s next book, will be a sequel to Neverwhere, the famous BBC TV series and novel from 1996. Neverwhere, which was also novelised later, is a story the homeless and dispossessed people living in a secret city London Below away from the eyes of ordinary people. Among all books by Neil Gaiman, Neverwhere has been adapted into most forms including TV series, Radio series and comic.
This sequel of Neverwhere was long-awaited by the readers and fans of Neil Gaiman. But at an event at London’s Southbank Centre this week, Gaiman put the wait to an end announcing that his next novel will be The Seven Sisters and he is already ‘a solid three chapters’ into the novel. Although, Neil is supposed to have the decided to put forward the sequel of Neverwhere years ago as the FAQs section of Neil’s website had the title ‘The Seven Sisters’ already.
Neil Gaiman spoke to the audience about The Seven Sisters at Southbank and said
