I am really excited to read this book. My friend gave me the highest recommendations for it! Love the whole idea of it, loved Coraline (the movie) and The Sandman (the graphic novel).
I'm afraid graphic novels are not my thing but what other straight fiction of his wouild people recommend?

If you're going to read only one graphic novel series - it has to be The Sandman.
Yep, it's one of the best. Also try Alan Moore's Swamp Thing, Watchmen, Lucifer (spin off series from that character in Sandman), Preacher, Sin City, V for Vendetta and Maus. Those are amongst the best ever produced. I've got almost all of Neil's graphic novels and all his novels and short stories. Very cool writer indeed.
Oh I, Brian, please don't let the TV depiction ruin the book for you, the TV show was very, as you say, 70's style stage-acting but the book is simply wonderful, Gaiman wrote the book because he was unhappy with how the TV thing turned out and he knew he could better it, which, of course he did - very very much so.
