This book was nothing and everything like I'd expected. Tell me, Mr Gaiman, how in the name of the old Gods and the new do you come up with such mind blowingly awesome ideas?
Review to come when I have lost this book induced touch of delirium. :D

" “Fuck you,� said Czernobog. “Fuck you and fuck your mother and fuck the fucking horse you fucking rode in on. You will not even die in battle. No warrior will taste your blood. No one alive will take your life. You will die a soft, poor death. You will die with a kiss on your lips and a lie in your heart.� OMFG. *_*"

I read somewhere that Neil Gaiman's books are a genre of their own. That's so true.

Oh my god yes. I've been reading this book so obsessively, I might lose my internship. His subtle references to music and literature send my heart into a flutter. Can't stop. *_* ^_^
Loved that Game of Thrones reference, and I have heard the most wonderful things about American Gods. Someone told me there is a tv show 'Lucifer' loosely based on this book on air too.

(I'm one of those last few standing people on Earth who haven't watched GoT .-.)
I've heard about Lucifer being similar to AG. And guess what? American Gods has been green lighted and Neil Gaiman himself would be involved in the show's production! :D
That is amazing ! And you need to watch Game of Thrones ASAP !
