Marking the 20th anniversary of American Gods, Harper Audio is releasing two novellas set in the world of American Gods.

First published in 2001, Neil Gaiman’s  American Gods is the New York Times bestselling novel that told the story of Shadow, an ex-con whose life took an unexpected turn when he became bodyguard, driver, and errand boy for the enigmatic trickster and rogue, “Mr. Wednesday.”

But Shadow’s story did not end with the last scene of American Gods. In “The Monarch of the Glen,” we follow Shadow to an isolated castle in Scotland, where he becomes embroiled in an ongoing battle between men and monsters. And in “Black Dog,” Shadow travels to a small village in England where he is befriended by a local couple with a dark past . . . and its ghosts.

According to Nerd Daily, the full cast stars Derek Jacobi as the Narrator (MOG and BD), Daniel Oreskes as Shadow (MOG and BD), Marc Thompson as Wednesday/Odin (MOG), Peter Forbes as Dr. Gaskill/ Security Guard 1/Smith (MOG) and Landlord (BD), Katherine Kinglsey as Jennie (MOG) and Cassie (BD), David Rintoul as man with deep gravel voice/Gordon/Security Guard 2 (MOG) and Dr. Scathelock/Police Officer (BD), Siobhan Redmond as Maura/Woman 1 (MOG) and Doreen (BD), Daniel Weyman as Bald man/Man1/Thor (MOG), Michael Emerson as Mr. Alice (MOG) and Ollie (BD), Adjoa Andoh as Woman 2/Mother (MOG) and Moira (BD), and Maggi-Meg Reed as Bast (BD).

These brand-new recordings come with the MP3 download of the full cast recording of American Gods: The Tenth Anniversary Edition via Libro.fm.
