Boys Will Be Boys
Advantages: Amusing and entertaining
Disadvantages: Not as funny as "Good Omens". But then, what is?
I thoroughly enjoyed Neil Gaiman's "American Gods"; a semi-epic tale of what could happen if the old gods; those of folklore and religion were to meet in one huge battle for supremacy against the new gods; those of TV and computer games. Although perhaps ...

Neil does something different - again!
Advantages: Incredibly inventive fun - and it's Neil Gaiman!
Disadvantages: It won't be what you expected - it's Neil Gaiman!

Funny and thrilling
Advantages: Another mind blowing story

Neil rocks!
Advantages: Great easy read, fun, enjoyable
Disadvantages: Not the greatest of Neil's works
Being an avid Gaiman fan, I was very excited to read this book (I even managed to get it signed!)
