American Gods
All this talk of Baba Yaga has reminded me of some great news we got recently of a new TV series planned by HBO, driven by the success of Game of Thrones, which I want to share incase you haven't heard.
Neil Gaimans American Gods is being made, apparently into a six series production from Playtone, and everything i've been hearing about it sounds fantastic, including the fact it is causing Gaiman to write more stories about the well known & the obscure gods of numerous world cultures, and how they might survive in the present.
I suspect many TW forumites are fans of Gaimans mature & complex mythologies, and if you haven't read him yet... check him out !
That book, and his Sandman graphic novel series are amazing works (it was in a Sandman story that I encountered Baba Yaga).
Anyone else hyped for this?
