Description
Now a TV Series produced by FremantleMedia North America available internationally on Amazon, exclusively through Prime Video and 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.

A storm is coming
[EN] I dived into this book to get ready for the TV show adaptation and I don't regret it! I found that some parts in the middle of the book were a bit too slow but overall I really enjoyed it. The characters are very unique and they're one of the main reasons I loved this story.
The interpretation is pretty great. The only downside for me was that it was hard at times to follow without seeing the characters' names in writing (though it may be mainly because I'm not a native English speaker).
[FR] Je me suis lancée dans la lecture de ce roman en prévision de la sortie de la série et je ne regrette pas ! J'ai trouvé qu'il y avait un petit "ventre mou", quelques longueurs au milieu du récit mais dans l'ensemble j'ai beaucoup aimé. Les personnages sont très originaux et sont un gros point fort de l'histoire.
La narration est vraiment bonne. En revanche c'est parfois un peu difficile de suivre sans avoir les noms des personnages sous les yeux, je me suis légèrement perdue par moment.

A wonderful story. The racist accents, not so much
A wonderful book. the narrator's voice is pleasant but the racist accents made me very uncomfortable. I don't know that there needs to be such voice acting.

A wonderful story by a wonderful reader.
A journey into a weird America. A story about men, gods, and how you'd rather be a man.

Oh... My... GODS!!! (bah dum bum!) Hee hee ha ha!
I am so angry at myself for putting this off for so long. I should have grabbed it and enjoyed it years ago when it was first released.
Bottom line, a great listen. The reader sounds exactly, EXACTLY, like Anthony Hopkins. lol Awesome. Frickin' awesome.
Hell effing yes I would recommend this audiobook! Love it. Love it. LOVE IT!

Hmmm something was missing
I don't know, the book was fine but I kept feeling something else was missing, it didn't really trap me, maybe there were too many elements taking place but something quite not made it for me. It could have been a different, more intimate story, but there was too much information it became confusing and meh. Ok in general I guess.

Great experience
All in all a great book with interesting characters and intriguing plot. Clearly shows that Mr. Gaiman had done his homework. Plot was also surprising and kept you guessing throughout.
Also George Guidall gave a lovely performance portraing the varied cast

Exceptional story
I liked how integrated this all felt while listening and how much perspective of day to day life changed for me towards the end. It really makes you wonder about what happened to old gods in the past and if there are any more old ones being worshipped in my part of the world. The audiobook reader did a fantastic job at painting this wonderful story and looking forward to reading more from the author and to the TV show!

Great narration except for female characters
Really well done, except all his female characters sound the same. Interview at the end is amazingly fun treat.

Strange
The book started and it was different, engaging but different. As the book went on it seemed as if the writer was grasping to maintain the oddness and it eventually wrapped up with an anticlimax that was disappointing.

Loved It!
I’d resisted listening to Neil Gaiman for quite some time, mostly out of a mistrust of all the hype. Living in the Midwest made me love this book all the more!

Interesting but not exciting
Interesting book with a good plot. On the slow side. Well written and narrated, but somehow it didn't excite me. It took me months to finish. Felt unfocused at times, and as if the protagonist had no drive or mission.

Awesome!
Loved the book. Characters were well written and the plot kept surprising me allover. Original idea still respecting old folklore and history. The narrator was good and brought story alive.

Ganz in Ordnung, aber...
...es hätte dem Buch bzw., der Geschichte sehr gut getan, sie in mehrere Teile aufzuteilen. Zwei oder ggf auch drei. Gaiman ist ein guter Geschichtenerzähler, aber man merkt es American Gods an, dass versucht wurde, viel zu viel Material in dieses eine Buch zu stecken. Die Story ist sehr kompakt und vielschichtig, ich denke, wenn sie etwas entzerrt worden wäre, hätte man besser auf Einzelheiten und Hintergründe eingehen können.

Not bad but...
... compared to the Tenth Anniversay Edition audiobook this version seems lacking. Even though Guidall does a good job he can‘t compete with the cast of the 10th a.e. .

Great story, speaker not so much
The story is simply great, great characters, funny and serious twists.
The speaker on the other hand. I think he would have done better with simply reading instead of making voices for the characters. Except a few those always seem off.

Alte Götter, neue Zeiten
Das Hörbuch ist grundsätzlich wirklich gut, es gibt viele Schauplätze und Charaktere, dadurch kann man schon mal durcheinander kommen, aber so bleibt die Geschichte auch spannend.
Der Sprecher ist gut, eventuell wäre Neil Gaiman, aber noch etwas besser gewesen.

Inventive story with a bonus treat
American Gods is an enjoyable, rather wild trip through America and international myths and mythologies. It's fun and exciting, but rather longish at times. That might be due to the audiobook adaptation as well - there are a lot of pauses, long pauses. Reading the novel is a tour de force for the presenter, which is probably why his breathing is quite dominant sometimes. It's a good performance on the whole, but not perfect. A nice treat is the bonus interview with the author Neil Gaiman at the end though.

Neil Gaiman at his best
There are Storytellers, Master Storytellers and Grandmasters of storytelling.
To my mind Neil Gaiman has managed to enter the ranks of the Grandmasters like S.King and Terry Pratchett.
Entertaining, thrilling and brilliant till the end.
