A review by talon1010
American Gods by Neil Gaiman
4.0
This was a very strange one. On rereading, I know I learned something, I just don't know what, which seems fitting. This was a book which rewards precious contextual knowledge, which isn't my favorite quality, but it's certainly an interesting time, with or without.
Very bizarre, elusive, ethereal magic. If nothing else, Gaiman seems exceptionally worthy to write stories like these for the evidently enormous stock of research he put in. I always love to see gods made material, and though this one renders them more as afterimages than agents, it did a great job at whatever it was meant to do.
