I really liked this one! Though it's really not a sequel to American Gods at all other than being set in the same world and having one of the side characters sons as the protagonists. It's very well written and I loved the story teller tone throughout which really captures the God of the stories voice and makes the whole novel even better. A lot of fun, very interesting, well written, basically a modern folk tale come to life. Highly recommended for any Gaiman fan!
