Laura, Shadow's wife, perishes in an unexplained vehicle accident a few days before to his release from jail. He wanders numbly back home. He meets the mysterious Mr. Wednesday on the aircraft, who says he's the monarch of America, a former deity, and a refugee from a far-off conflict.
As a storm of extraordinary and epic proportions looms above, they set off on a deeply odd trek across the centre of the United States together.
American Gods is a frightening, compelling, and very uncomfortable book that examines the essence of America. You'll be shocked at what and who it discovers there.
