The novel enjoyed great success, whereas its television roots did not receive as much international exposure as the novel. It was accompanied by a spoken word CD and cassette release, also by the BBC. The novel was originally released by BBC Books in 1996, three episodes into the television series run. This is because the management of Harrods changed their minds about proposed filming. Most notable is the appearance of the Floating Market at Harrods (in the novel) rather than under Battersea power station (the TV series). The plot and characters are exactly the same as in the series, with the exception that the novel form allowed Gaiman to expand and elaborate on certain elements of the story and restore changes made in the televised version from his original plans.
Neverwhere is the companion novelisation written by English author Neil Gaiman of the television serial Neverwhere, written by Gaiman and devised by Lenny Henry.
