Neil Gaiman, American Gods (London, 2001).
Part 1, Shadows
1
Low Key Lyesmith is Loki Liesmith but who is Sam Fetisher?
Shadow is asked whether he has black ancestry and doesn't know but he is black on TV.
COMING TO AMERICA 813 AD (pp. 58-60)
Would Norse sailors pray to the all-father or to Aegir? See the combox here.
COMING TO AMERICA 1721 (pp. 80-88)
This is a good short story. It informs us that pixies were originally called "piskies."
Obviously there is more to the novel than this. I have watched Season 1, Episode 1, of the TV adaptation and have reread the book to p. 94 of 501.
