He encounters the enigmatic Mr Wednesday, who claims to be a former god and King of America. Together they embark on a strange and disturbing journey through the heart of the USA.






Good to see this novel has good ratings, and much deserved they are too. Gaiman is quite difficult to confine, as his books are magical and steeped in realism at the same time. But a writer with such endless imagination and an infectious storytelling ability can only be admired.
