A great story full of mythology references, side stories about humans and faith, and a grand overarching narrative of love, betrayal, power, and change. Gaiman is a masterful storyteller and if you know anything about mythology, especially any of the European ones, you'll have a blast.

Released from prison, Shadow finds his world turned upside down. His wife has been killed; a mysterious stranger offers him a job. But Mr. Wednesday, who knows more about Shadow than is possible, warns that a storm is coming -- a battle for the very soul of America . . . and they are in its direct path. One of the most talked-about books of the new millennium, American Gods is a kaleidoscopic journey deep into myth and across an American landscape at once eerily familiar and utterly alien. It is, quite simply, a contemporary masterpiece.
