American Gods

A masterpiece of contemporary literature. When Shadow is released from prison, nothing is the same as before. His wife has been killed, and a mysterious stranger offers him a job. He calls himself Mr. Wednesday and knows unusually much about Shadow. He claims that a storm is brewing, a massive battle for the soul of America. A battle in which Shadow will play an important role. One of the most talked-about books of the last decade: a kaleidoscopic journey through mythology and through an America that feels both eerily familiar and completely foreign. For the first time unabridged in German and completely newly translated. Neil Gaiman's American Gods is the literary basis for the successful, eponymous series. "Original, gripping, and endlessly inventive." George R. R. Martin.
