Neil Gaiman was so excited about this first novel that he narrated it all by himself perhaps he thought no other soul can describe the fantasy-like him. The character of Richard Mayhew is of an ordinary man on the London streets.
He goes to his job every day and tries to perform well within his limits. Taking risks and participating in any action work is just not the business of this average person. One act of kindness changes his life in a single moment when he helps a young girl who appeared to be injured.

After helping the girl Richard finds himself in a new dimension which he never dreamed about even. He never knew that such a dimension or a new world existed parallel to the old city of London. The new world is loaded with monsters and strange creatures that can scare you in the day. People of this world can pass through a small crack sometimes.
Richard fears that he might become the same kind of creature if he lives in the new world for some more time. Surviving in such circumstances looks difficult to him so he starts looking for a way back home. This total fantasy is never tried again by the author; Don’t Panic and The Sandman was not thrilling like this book.
These two books also don’t have an abrupt shift in scenes which decorates this first book by the author. Richard throughout the story never tries to emerge as a heroic figure all he wants is to return to his normal and dull life once again. Fate forces the man to take drastic decisions otherwise his nature does not allow him to take part in such heroic activities.
