"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
"Gaiman returns to the fertile killing ground that nourished The
Sandman: that peculiarly American crossroads where pop culture
intersects with religion, violence and death."--Village Voice
Literary Supplement
"Immensely rewarding . . . . Suffused with . . . powerful imagery
and deftly painted characters . . . . A finely crafted novel of
weight and significance [with] poetic descriptions, sharp-eyed
criticism, and first-rate storytelling. There is much to enjoy, to
admire, and to ponder in this unforgettable tale."--Cleveland Plain
Dealer
"Mystery, satire, sex, horror, poetic prose-American Gods uses all
these to keep the reader turning the pages."--Washington Post
"Pointed, occasionally comic, often scary, consistently moving and
provocative . . . . American Gods is strewn with secrets and
magical visions."--USA Today
"Provocative yet fun . . . Gaiman has applied his vast breadth of
knowledge about all things mythological to a truly high
concept."--Entertainment Weekly
