A modern masterpiece from the multiple-award-winning master of innovative fiction Neil Gaiman
First published in 2001, American Gods became an instant classic, lauded for its brilliant synthesis of ?mystery, satire, sex, horror, and poetic prose?

So begins Shadow's dark and strange road trip, one that introduces him to a host of eccentric characters whose fates are mysteriously intertwined with his own. For beneath the placid surface of everyday life, a storm is brewing?an epic war for the very soul of America?and Shadow is standing squarely in its path.
