American Gods by far. The protagonist, Shadow, is easily one of the most likable protagonists I've ever come across in a story. It's a longer book, but when you get started it's really hard to put down. Also if you have ANY interest in mythology then you'll most likely enjoy it and thanks to the God of War franchise, most teenage boys do have some interest in mythology.

Well Odin is one of the main characters so you pretty much have to now.

Well Odin is a Norse god if I'm not mistaken..?

But the Norse gods are actually far more badass anyways.

You're not, that's what happens when I'm trying to do 5 different things at once as well as drink a glass of bourbon.

AMERICAN GODS. Everything everyone said is true and more. It's also a bit of a philosophical book as well, it tackles consumerism, environmentalism, immigration and anything else you can think of.

Awesome. I have that book he did with Terry Pratchett as well, so I'll read that too since Terry Pratchett is cool.

I really need something to stimulate my imagination...
