American Gods

Description

From #1 New York Times
bestselling author Neil Gaiman, a contemporary masterpiece combing mythology,
adventure, and illusion―one of ten classic Gaiman works repackaged with elegant
original watercolor art by acclaimed artist Henry Sene Yee

Released from
prison, Shadow finds his world turned upside down. His wife has been killed; a stranger offers him a
job and Shadow, with nothing to lose, accepts. But a storm is coming. Beneath the placid surface of
everyday life, a war is being fought – and the prize is the very soul of
America.

An inspired combination of mythology,
adventure, and illusion, American Gods is a dark and kaleidoscopic journey deep into myth and across an
America at once eerily familiar and utterly alien. It is, quite simply, a
contemporary masterpiece.

“Piercingly observed, jaggedly
poetic, ruthlessly cutting a path through graveyards of dead stars and dead
money and dead feelings, this novel is the map back to dawn.” — Steve Erickson

“American Gods manages to reinvent, and reassert, the enduring
importance of fantastic literature itself in this late age of the world. Dark
fun, and nourishing to the soul.” — Michael
Chabon
