Great book. The TV series is pretty good too. ( If you like him, you’ll have to check out China Mieville )

I went and bought one of those awkward tall mass market ones that I hate because I needed a copy.

I got the 10th Anniversary edition, because it apparently had more text in it than the others. When I saw that, it sold me lol.

I loved American Gods, it was my first Neil Gaiman book… I’m reading Neverwhere at the moment and it’s just starting to get really good! 🙂

I’ve read it 3 time. Make sure you research all the Gods and myths that he mentions if you are not really familiar with their stories you will get even more out of the book.
