Even the gods go to war. Especially when the Old Gods feel they’re being shown the door by the upstart New Gods. But the story isn’t that simple. A man named Shadow has been recruited by Mr. Wednesday to help rally the Old Gods for the unavoidable battle.
Shadow has his own problems though. He’s just been released from jail. Has no real place to call home. And is being followed around the country by his dead wife.
Gaiman puts all of the myths and legend of old together in this Sandmanesque tale. He even creates several new gods to the mix. You won’t ever look at I Love Lucy the same way again.
