American Gods in Jeans and Others

The gods must have hidden this book published in 2001 under a stack of others. Maybe because the central premise of the novel is that 'gods and mythological creatures exist because people believe in them'.

These are like fighting words. Words that stir up the ire of would-be gun-toting believers who...you know what they are capable of.

But our literary critic shares the joy of such a book. The twists and turns and battles of gods, Gods and mythical creatures against the protagonist and his allies.
