Overview

<p> Nobody Owens, known to his friends as Bod, is a normal boy. </p> <p> He would be completely normal if he didn't live in a sprawling graveyard, being raised and educated by ghosts, with a solitary guardian who belongs to neither the world of the living nor of the dead. </p> <p> There are dangers and adventures in the graveyard for a boy-an ancient Indigo Man beneath the hill, a gateway to a desert leading to an abandoned city of ghouls, the strange and terrible menace of the Sleer. </p> <p> But if Bod leaves the graveyard, then he will come under attack from the man Jack—who has already killed Bod's family. . . . </p> <p> Beloved master storyteller Neil Gaiman returns with a luminous new novel for the audience that embraced his <i>New York Times</i> bestselling modern classic <i>Coraline</i>. Magical, terrifying, and filled with breathtaking adventures, the graveyard book is sure to enthrall readers of all ages. </p>
