Open Your Ears To: Neverwhere Adaptation Review

We wrote on Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere before, and now that the Neverwhere adaptation has been released and we’ve had time to digest the content, we at Larkable have something to say about it. Usually this writer prefers actual audiobooks as opposed to adaptations, but this Neverwhere adaptation is unlike any other radio production you’ll hear.

With 2015 right around the corner, the pressure is on to live up to Robert Zemeckis’ clothing predictions in Back to the Future II.

Fans Have Mixed Feelings About Neil Gaiman’s American Gods TV Show

Neil Gaiman’s American Gods deserves the best production quality, and I’m not so sure it will get it, now. As one of my personal favorite books, I already had mixed feelings about how a TV show adaptation might ‘ruin’ my well-imagined world of men and mystery. Now, with the announcement that HBO is no longer handling the production of the show, doubt continues to grow. Today, FreemantleMedia (American Idol, The X Factor) has announced that they finalized the rights to turn this award-winning depiction of…
