Neil Gaiman
Now a STARZ® Original Series produced by FremantleMedia North America, starring Ricky Whittle, Ian McShane, Emily Browning, and Pablo Schreiber.
Locked behind bars for three years, Shadow did his time, quietly waiting for the day when he could return to Eagle Point, Indiana. A man no longer scared of what tomorrow might bring, all he wanted was to be with Laura, the wife he deeply loved, and start a new life.
But just days before his release, Laura and Shadow's best friend are killed in an accident. With his life in pieces and nothing to keep him tethered, Shadow accepts a job from a beguiling stranger he meets on the way home, an enigmatic man who calls himself Mr. Wednesday. A trickster and a rogue, Wednesday seems to know more about Shadow than Shadow does himself.
Life as Wednesday's bodyguard, driver, and errand boy is far more interesting and dangerous than Shadow ever imagined. Soon Shadow learns that the past never dies . . . and that beneath the placid surface of everyday life a storm is brewing—an epic war for the very soul of America—and that he is standing squarely in its path.

Reseñas de la Crítica
Hugo Award Winner, Best Novel, 2002
Nebula Award Winner, Best Novel, 2002
"Read dynamically and emotionally by George Guidall - who gives more personalities and ethnicities than one would think possible... Brilliant dialogue and profound insights into American consciousness show Gaiman to be a visionary and a master wordsmith." (AudioFile)
"Neil Gaiman enters Stephen King territory...with American Gods." (New York Post)
"A crackerjack suspense yarn...juicily original...Wagnerian noir." (Salon.com)
"By turns thoughtful, hilarious, disturbing, uplifting, horrifying and enjoyable, and sometimes all at once." (St. Louis Post-Dispatch)

I got turned off to the Wheel of Time series after about the fifth installment finding each volume pretty much followed the same formula and there was very little fresh. This is never the case with Neil Gaiman. Every book is a new surprise and it is hard to believe almost any of them are from the same author. One common denominator for sure, they are all excellent.

I felt guilty giving up but I did. Life's too short. So sue me.
I bailed after Part 1

Here Gaiman not only did not let me down, but in fact superseded my expectations. The narrative is clever, and the characters are just interesting enough to allow the events to unfold in the way that they need to unfold. We know little about the Shadow character - here that is a good thing.
The best thing about the novel is that the story becomes both more exciting and plausible as it gets closer to its climax. And the epilogue is even better.
The narrator is excellent. His vocal repertoire is quite good. It is particularly strong for the female characters, such as Laura, and for the two most interesting male gods, Wednesday and Chernabog. Some of the voices are a tad cartoonish, but they seem to match Gaiman's intentions.
In summary, this is a highly enthusiastic review of a book that should not disappoint.
Fun with metaphysics

Most importantly, though, Gaiman weaves into this story a bunch of important metaphysical observations. I had to press pause on several occasions to simply reflect: What does he mean by that? How does he know? How would I test this hypothesis? How do I see this played out in real life?
One of the best recent books I've encountered in a long time. Well-deserving of its Hugo and Nebula awards. With Gaiman, I'm finding I like the Audible versions even better than the print versions.
The metaphysical punchlines are profound

Where does American Gods rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Ranks in my top ten, up there with Stephen King's Dark Tower series.Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
The plot was more smooth and cohesive than a cliff hanger, though it was definitely intriguing and kept me listening even though it was long.Have you listened to any of George Guidall’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes, and he is always stellar. He narrated many of the dark tower books, and was just as engrossing and involved in American Gods.Any additional comments?
It took Gaiman a few years to finish this book, and that was time well spent. The research he must have done on ancient gods and traditions was evident and well adjusted to the story. The length of the book did not subtract from its content one bit. The prose of it was often beautiful and understated. It reminded me of what the Odysee might be like if it were actually written in modern times, rather than some cheap rendition of a modernized version of an old tale, as we've often had to sit through as movie ideas seem to dry up more and more these days. Very engrossing, adequately detailed, even paced, and highly imaginative, yet well grounded book. I recommend it!Amazing. This tale is in the fantasy VIP section.
