BOOKS BY GAIMAN
NORSE MYTHOLOGY:
Rating: “YOU HAVE IMPRESSED THE GODS”
Gaiman has taken old Scandinavian myths and
rewritten them in a modern voice. He takes the serious
and sometimes funny tales of the Norse gods, and
puts them in a tongue and cheek style that works
perfectly. There are parts of the stories that are
naturally comedic, and Gaiman brings out their full
potential, while still paying homage to the stoic origins.
His interpretation results in a wonderful retelling that is
very entertaining to read.

NEVERWHERE:
Rating: A “NORMAL SOCIETY / ABNORMAL
SOCIETY”
In Gaiman’s original novel “Neverwhere” we explore
an underground society of London filled with magic
and intrigue. In this second world, just below the
streets of normal-London, we meet daring
protagonists and experience interesting trials.
AMERICAN GODS:
Rating: A “TV SHOW WORTHY LITERARY
COMPONENT”
In another original novel, Gaiman explores
many different deities and their relations in modern
age America. Crafting a fictive world in which they
react and interact with one another against a common
enemy, Gaiman has created another wonderful and
unforgettable read with this one.
“American Gods” Is also airing with a television
show adaptation.
