One of the best contemporary fantasy novels ever published. It tells the tale of a man called Shadow, an ex-convict, who gets caught up in a supernatural war between two sets of Gods. One set is the Old Gods, made up of gods from Norse, African and Egyptian mythology, who have lost most of their power as people stopped believing in them, and the other set is the New Gods, borne from peoples new beliefs, made up of gods like the goddess of media and the god of the Internet. The book mixes all that in with a road trip and pure Americana, and it is absolutely essential reading.
