American Gods is a story about Shadow Moon
who is released from prison because his wife has been killed in a car accident.
He has nothing, but he meets a mysterious grifter...
"What might I call you?"
"What's today?"
"Wednesday."
"Today's my day."
From that moment Shadow is out of his depth, in a world of magic and weirdness...
and nothing will ever be the same.
"Do you know who he is?"
"Who he really is?"
When you look at 'American Gods' you have to think of it as an invitation to world...
There's a world right under the world of the familiar and there's a world above it,
and there's a world to the side of it,
and the more layers we peel back on the world of 'American Gods' the more we'll find out that
reality is not we always expect.
"He does not know our world."
"I'm easing him in."
