Will someone please tell me what the hell this show/book whatever is about? I have no clue about any of it and until last eeek had never heard of it. The trailer looks like a True Blood knock-off.
No it doesn't. Not even a little bit.
It's about a guy named Shadow who is in prison for assault set to be released for good behavior and then gets released even earlier because his wife dies. What transpires after he gets out is a series of magical realism events based on the notion that gods are real in the physical world and exist as a result of their followers and believers. The Old Gods (think Roman, Egyptian, Norse, Greek, Mesopotamian, etc.) are dying. The New Gods (think TV, Money, etc.) are waxing. A clash between old and new is inevitable. Shadow gets mixed up in that mess.
