    THE GRAVEYARD BOOK

    • 1472 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Neil Gaiman is a prolific author best known for his legendary Sandman series, as well as other award winning novels and I with no hesitation can say that The Graveyard Book (also award-winning) is up to par with those standards. What initially intrigued me to read this book was when I learned that it was Gaiman’s nod to the classic, and one of my favorites, children’s story The Jungle Book. Like Mowgli, the protagonist, Nobody “Bod” Owens is orphaned. However, in this novel, The Jungle Book’s pack of animals is replaced by the ghouls and ghosts of a graveyard. In line with many of Gaiman’s work the book falls under the genre of fantasy and horror but also blended together with supernatural characters from legends and mythology to create Bod’s gothic coming of age tale.…

    The cold harsh winds of the winter whistled through the ranch. Nothing moved, the grounds lay bare the only sign of life was an illuminated window on the far side of the silent ranch. The light came from a small wooden shack; the shack appeared newer than the rest of the weather worn buildings, it also looked better cared for than the other buildings. Next to the shack was a small garden and in it were gravestones. Two were lined side by side, but another sat lonely in the corner of the garden. The lonely gravestone was simple it was made from wood unlike the other two that had been carefully crafted out of stone. Then a creak echoed around the garden and the shack, it was no louder than a whisper but in a place where nothing made a single noise it seemed loud. The door of the shack rolled open, a small elderly man appeared holding a tattered leather bag. He slung it over his shoulder, he took a step outside, and he shivered as a gust of chilling wind passed over him. He looked back into the shack, deciding whether to put a coat on. He briskly emerged from the shack once more still with no coat or gloves or any added clothing but a gun. He took the gun and carefully wrapped it in a piece of cloth he had taken from his trouser pocket. He then lowered his wrinkled hand which clutched the gun back into his pocket. He limped badly stopping and wincing in pain. He soldiered on still clutching the gun in his pocket. He reached the entrance to the garden; he limped through the battered wooden gate, as he passed it let out a loud screech. The elderly man quickly scanned around him looking whether his carelessness had aroused any one from their business. He waited a while then let out a sigh of relief as no one had appeared from there bunkhouse.…
