Anybody read it?

Cause I haven’t, but apparently it’s really good. And I made a thread about it because it’s written by Neil Gaiman.

In 2002, it won both the Nebula and Hugo award for novel of the year. And, Has received more award nominations than Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

So, go read it! Read it now!

I couldn't get into it. I read about 78 pages and then gave up. The very beginning was pretty good though.

It's about this guy that gets roped into working for a shady rich man that I suspect is a god. Shady Rich Man is trying to gather other gods together to fight something. Regular fiction.

It shits all over the concept of Gods and religions.

I think i might like it. I want to read The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, but most book stores don't sell it.
