Just released from prison, Shadow encounters Mr. Wednesday, an enigmatic stranger who seems to know a lot about him, and when Mr. Wednesday offers him a job as his bodyguard, Shadow accepts and is plunged into a dark and perilous world.
Shadow sets out on a journey across America fighting old myths and the gods of modern technology and material obsession when he takes employment with a man named Wednesday -- otherwise known as the god Odin.
A very entertaining story, but I had way too high expectations. It was a fun read, even if I figured out the plot twist. I would recommend this book for the interesting plot, plus the theology presented is unique and makes you ponder.
