Story
Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

Story
Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

Publisher's Summary
Here's a fantastic ghost adventure story, laced with menace and humour.
When a baby escapes a murderer intent on killing the entire family, who would have thought it would find safety and security in the local graveyard?
Brought up by the resident ghosts, ghouls and spectres, Bod has an eccentric childhood learning about life from the dead. But for Bod there is also the danger of the murderer still looking for him - after all, he is the last remaining member of the family.
A stunningly original novel deftly constructed over eight chapters, featuring every second year of Bod's life, from babyhood to adolescence. Will Bod survive to be a man?

Wow! Just brilliant.
This wonderful story is made even better by the wonderful narration by its author, Neil Gaiman. What an incredible talent he is. There is nothing to dislike about this story, and being my 'first' audible book, I think it will be hard to match.

Neil Gaiman is a master
Neil Gaiman narrates every bit as well as he writes. Thus reminded me very much if Stephen Fry's narration of Harry Potter and was every bit as impossible to put down.

Gloriously spooky and sweet
Gaiman at his charming best. I cannot fault a single tale of his. He writes with a captivating rhythm, sweet and innocent yet dark and spooky.

Successful Suspension of Disbelief
A baby raised by ghosts in the graveyard? Ghouls, Barrow-wights, international ageless assassins ? Hounds of heaven? A heady mix that could be both off-putting and unsuccessful. But that is not the case: Neil Gaiman once again creates a parallel secondary world into which we are not simply invited, but virtually compelled to enter. The writing is authentic and graceful, the plot is captivating, and the characters – especially that of the boy growing – are attractive beyond measure.
