Bod, as his friends call him, is just a regular youngster named Nobody Owens. Indeed, he would be quite normal if he didn't live in a cemetery, be reared and taught by spirits, and have a lone guardian who isn't a part of either the living or the dead.
Bod encounters many perils and experiences at the cemetery, including the unsettling and terrifying threat of the Sleer, a tombstone that leads to the city of ghouls, a friendship with a witch, and much more.
The true threat, however, is in the world of the living as it is where Jack, the guy who slaughtered Bod's family, resides.
A masterful work of dark humor by renowned novelist Neil Gaiman, illustrated by the acclaimed Dave McKean.
