Neil Gaiman's groundbreaking, award-winning novel American Gods has captivated readers since its first publication in 2001. Now, ten years later, a special anniversary edition invites you to revisit the mesmerizing world of gods, legends, and the human experience.

American Gods plunges us into a shadowy realm where the ancient deities of myth and folklore have faded into obscurity. Yet, amidst the neon lights and towering skyscrapers of present-day America, they still linger, desperate for recognition and power.

As Shadow Moon, a man haunted by loss and burdened by a past he can't escape, we follow a labyrinthine trail of secrets, encounters, and confrontations. Guided by the enigmatic Mr. Wednesday, a charismatic trickster who may be the Norse god Odin, Shadow witnesses the clash of gods and the fragility of human belief.

From Shadow Moon, the lost and confused protagonist, to Mr. Wednesday, the enigmatic and manipulative god, American Gods abounds with compelling characters who leave an unforgettable mark.

  • Shadow Moon: The embodiment of everyman, Shadow struggles with grief, loneliness, and the weight of his past. Yet, as he journeys through the realm of gods, he discovers his own resilience and potential power.
  • Mr. Wednesday: A charming and cunning trickster, Mr. Wednesday may be the Norse god Odin, or he may simply be a master of manipulation. His motivations and true nature remain shrouded in mystery throughout.
  • Mad Sweeney: A drunken, vengeful leprechaun, Mad Sweeney embodies the fading power of Celtic myth. Despite his flaws, he possesses an unwavering loyalty to those he considers his friends.
  • Laura Moon: Shadow's dead wife, Laura returns from the grave with a hunger for vengeance and a secret that threatens to shatter Shadow's world.

American Gods transcends the boundaries of fantasy, delving into profound themes of belief, identity, and the nature of the American dream.

  • The Power of Belief: The novel explores the ways in which belief shapes our reality, from the gods we worship to the stories we tell ourselves.
  • **The Search for Identity: Shadow Moon's journey is not only a physical one, but also an introspective search for meaning and purpose in a world that has lost its way.
  • The Illusion of the American Dream: American Gods confronts the myths and illusions that have shaped American culture, exposing the hidden costs and unfulfilled promises of the "land of opportunity."

The Tenth Anniversary Edition of American Gods features all-new cover art by renowned artist Dave McKean. McKean's haunting and evocative illustrations perfectly complement the novel's dark and surreal atmosphere. From the ethereal figure of Shadow Moon to the grotesque majesty of Mr. Wednesday, McKean's artwork brings the characters and world of American Gods to life with stunning detail.

With its immersive prose, unforgettable characters, and thought-provoking themes, American Gods is a literary masterpiece that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. The Tenth Anniversary Edition is an essential addition to the library of any reader who appreciates fantasy, mythology, and the human condition.

A captivating journey into the unseen realms, where gods walk among us and the lines between reality and myth blur, American Gods is an epic adventure that will enchant and challenge readers of all backgrounds.
