Just bought the hard cover of American Gods ( my paperback was getting ragged) because it included Anansi Boys under the same cover. Both stories are really good reads if you have a fascination for Mythology.

I don't suppose it has been translated to Swedish yet but I notice there is a TV-series with the same name so maybe I can follow the story that way.

Yes, the same story about to start the second season.
I have just finished Jasper Fforde: Shades of Grey: The Road to High Saffron
A very good read. I like Jasper Fforde for his elegant use of language, and his keen eye to observe society. In this book which I understand is the first of a trilogy (two more books to come) he constructs an interesting future society based on the perception of colour...A very good read.

That sounds very interesting and original. I'll put that on my list. Thanks!
Book eleven of the wheel of time series, robert jordan. Each novel is 800 or 900 pages. I think there are 14 books, the final two or three written by someone else, using jordan's notes.
Jordan said he'd keep writing until they nailed his coffin shut.
