Time to figure out what book to read next in the AW SF/F book study! For the month of February we are looking for a fantasy novel. Please try to think of a book that's easy to find and not too expensive (so, for example, no out of print hardcovers please). Please include an Amazon link in your post. Once we have four nominees the books will wrestle alligators and each other I will put up a poll. I look forward to your suggestions.

Has The Neverending Story ever been suggested? I think it's a classic. :)

I love The Neverending Story! I'd be up for a re-read.

American Gods by Neil Gaiman?

Seems to be a thing to read before they finish turning it into an HBO show.

American Gods always stirs up good discussion, so I'd be interested to see what other people think of it.

Thanks peeps! We now have four books, so I will put together the poll. By Monday we should now which books we'll be discussing in January.
