Deadhouse Gates by Steven Erikson
5.0
This is where Erikson grabs your soul and never lets go. Gardens of the Moon can confound a reader with its unapologetic throwing of the reader into the deep end of a seemingly depthless world. Deadhouse Gates begins the tradition of showing you why you've stumbled along the greatest piece of fantasy, and writing, put to the page.
American Gods: Author's Perferred Text by Neil Gaiman
5.0
Gaiman, like Wednesday, drags the reader (and Shadow) from one mythical being in human clothing to another - rejoicing in the entertainment value of exploring how these beings would adjust to modern life. Truly a masterpiece.
