In true Gaiman fashion, the story is full of humor, fantastical things made real, and an abundance of twists and turns such that you give up trying to figure out where he's going to take you next and just hang on for the ride. There's even a wonderfully romantic, if slightly skewed, love story. It's the same universe as American Gods, where the gods are real and live among humans, though it's not really a sequel, and the two books can be read separately. And it's a coming-of-age-story of sorts, in that Charlie and Spider both grow up emotionally.I can't think of anything else to say that hasn't been said already, and much more coherently--I'm rendered speechless by extreme fangirlishness. Great book. I knew it would be.

A story, a story; let it come, let it go.. I didn't read this one but listened to the story as read , really it's so much more than reading more of an performance by Lenny Henry.It's rather fitting for a story that has its roots in the oral tradition of the Caribbean / W African stories and even if you have read the book it's worth seeking out. I'm not going to write another synopsis as that's been fairly well covered but this book is worth reading for the "human" slimeball a man for whom the word oleaginous was coined, Graham Coates,the owner of the agency that the protagonist works for.He nicely illustrates the distance between the tiger stories and the spider stories and just how short a trip back up the web it is to get there.

This is a story about the two sons of Anansi the trickster spider god living in modern day London and America. One has what could be considered magic powers and the other is just a normal guy with low self esteem. They have never met till now, when their father dies. A very funny book and a great read. Although who ends up with who is extremely predictable it's the journey there and the characters little quirks and the world around them which really keep you reading. Tiger should have never had all the stories in the first place. I usually only read on the bus to and from work but this made me want to read more. The chapters didn't have cliffhangers as such but as soon as you read the title of the next chapter it created anticipation for what was next. This is the first Neil Gaiman book I've read, suffice to say i'll be reading more of his books in the future.

This was such a fun read. Gaiman has a wonderful sense of humor and uses adjectives like no other author! I wish I could quote him, but my husband already returned the book to the library. His main characters are two men: Fat Charlie Nansi and his procosious, rather adventurous brother, Spider. Gaiman creates the most colorful characters, such as the three old neighbor women of Carribean decent who do magic over him, and and boss him around as if he were still a child. Woven into these stories are bits of the "Anansi Tales." So you have a mix of magic/fantasy, murder, ghosts with a touch of occassional reality here and there. An overall wonderful story

The first thing about this book is that it’s fun, good-humoured, a rollicking yarn. Gaiman can tell a story, and stories within and about stories, totally holding our interest while knitting them together into a colourful and madly logical crazy quilt. He can sweep readers up into his extraordinary world and into a kind of boyish exuberance – like, at the bawdy end of the market, Tom Robbins, at the chaste end, Terry Pratchett. The second thing is that it’s in an oblique way wise and deep. Oblique: it’s not boringly spelt out; that’s what reviewers and philosophers, without the great gift of story, are reduced to. It’s all there in the way the story glints. But I’ll spell it out a bit, trying to persuade you. This review contains plot spoilers. If you are going to read the book anyway, read the book first. If you haven’t decided to read it, read the review. If it prompts you to read the book you’ll still get more enjoyment from that than grief from the spoiling. In the main arc of story the very ordinary, overcivilized Charlie Nancy learns that his father was the Spider-god Anansi, and that he has a long-lost brother, Spider, who inherited all the god stuff. His father had made his life a misery, his brother comes to. By a long route he comes to reclaim his inheritance; to embrace his shadow. Anansi is the trickster archetype. (All the Jungian jargon is mine, not Gaiman’s, but the themes glare.) One gloss on the trickster stories is new, as far as I know. They were originally Tiger stories, about getting what one wanted by brutality; but Anansi stole them (“earnt†them, he claims), adapting them into stories about getting what one wanted – sex, food, victory in struggles – by cunning. People take on the shapes of the stories and songs that surround them; so people started to think their way out of their problems – sometimes, of course, into worse problems. That’s when they started to make the human world. So far, improvement, but no goals beyond the selfish. So Anansi must be superseded as surely as Tiger. The conceit that Spider is the severed shadow of Charlie is put to use. If Charlie starts as a symbolic eunuch (my image, not Gaiman’s), Spider starts as what was cut off from him; and as Wayland Young summed up his tract Eros Denied, if there’s one thing even more pathetic than a eunuch it’s his severed balls. Gaiman works to a happy resolution. Not merely does Charlie grow his inner Spider; despite God-like powers, Spider was even more limited as a human than Charlie, and he learns grow his inner Charlie. He learns care for some others, even something like commitment. – My pompous “moral-drawing†is enormously flat; the story detail does it all, and is vastly hillier. The book deals with deep evil too, but in an interesting and unusual way, mirroring the way Charlie deals with it in the climax: taking away its power by mockery. (Read it; you’ll see how it works. Just that is worth more than the price of admission.)

Fat Charlie has an ordinary life until the day he attends his father's funeral and finds out that not only was his father actually the African trickster god Anansi, but also that he has a brother who has inherited his father's magical qualities. Fat Charlie soon meets his brother, Spider, who comes to stay with him in London. Before Fat Charlie knows what has hit him, he has lost his fiancee, his job, and is arrested for embezzlement. Not knowing what else to do, Fat Charlie asks some witches to make Spider go away. Readers familiar with the Anansi stories will enjoy the way that Gaiman skillfully weaves them into the plot. Fat Charlie's quest to escape the tangled web of a dysfunctional family to return to his safe, normal life is humorous and surprisingly moving. Of course, nothing works out as he first intended, but as he learns more about himself and comes to terms with his family, Fat Charlie finally ends up with the life he deserves. Loved it!

A brilliant followup novel to Gaiman's previous book "American Gods". Not officially a sequel, but set in the same world and utilizing at least one of the same characters from "Gods". Anansi boys is a story about self-discovery, conquering fears, and mending family ties. The story is much less gripping or complicated than its predecessor "American Gods", but for some that will come as a welcomed fact. The book is roughly half the length of "Gods" coming in at just under 400pgs whereas "Gods" usually clocks in just under 700. The story itself is more straight forward and cinematic in nature, which is why there are plans to adapt this novel into a Movie. All these things should not make the potential reader believe that this is somehow a lesser Gaiman novel. "Anansi Boys" still holds all the things about Gaiman's stories readers have come to love, and the world Gaiman created for "Gods" still holds all of it's original dark charms. Unlike "American Gods", "Anansi Boys" is likely to appeal to a wider audience because it doesn't contain some of the more questionable content that its predecesor did. This book is also far more humorous and light hearted and will often make the reader laugh outloud. It's truly enjoyable for everyone.

As something of a sequel to his previous outing "American Gods", Anansi Boys takes the Gaiman's concept from the epic to the intimate and, in doing so, is likely to appeal to both his traditional audience and new readers alike. The concept in question is simple. The gods of humanity are real, they came into existance when someone first imagined and worshiped them. Like any lifeform, they need t ofeed - in their case, however, it's worship that they require. As numerous cultures left their old deities behind, they were forced to find other ways to get by. Anansi the Spider-God, a trickster, was a minor but memorable character in the previous book but any reader could see that there was more life in the old trickster than that. And they were wrong. Anansi is dead and the story follows his mortal son coming to grips with the death of a particularly embarrassing parent. It's the family relationships (particularly with regard to siblings) that make this and, despite Anansi's death, he's present throughout. Despite the "fantasy" setting that you might be expecting, it's all very mundane and (the presence of ancient deities aside) realistic. The USUAL problem with sequels is that they require the casual consumer to go for the original product first. Not so here. "Anansi Boys" seems tailor made for readers who have no idea of the events or concepts of the previous book. It might be more true to call it a book that deals with the same universe and shares one or two characters with the earlier work than a true sequel. This intelligent decision to make it read like a stand-alone book will pay dividends, making it more attractive to Gaiman-virgins, yet to the already initiated none of it feels like you're playing catch-up. It's an emotional, funny and genuinely surprising read - possibly his best work yet and it's proof of his growing reputation among "serious" authors being utterly well-deserved. Give it a go, you'll be glad you did. 8.5 out of 10

Where American Gods was vast and mysterious, Anansi Boys is relatively domestic and familiar. But it’s still a tale about ancient gods. The relationship between Spider and Fat Charlie is full of surprises that you wouldn’t expect out of something that seems so tired and tried, the reconciliation of two brothers on opposite ends of the personality spectrum. Its how they reconcile and why they reconcile and the whole ‘journey is more important then the destination’ stuff. The destination is wonderfully satisfying. It's a starfish, not a amputee. The supporting cast is colorful too, from a newly dead ghost whose prevailing reaction to death is irritation, Spider and Fat Charlie’s outrageous father, a villain whose worst trait is his fondness for clichés, and a parade of half-human, half-god creatures from Anansi’s world.

This being the second novel by Gaiman that I've read, I think I can safely say that he has one quality to his writing that sets it apart from just about any other writer I've read: The man can tell stories. Not stories in the sense that every novel, or film, or play is a story but stories of the kind that your parents would read to you before bed. They're stories that are pleasantly innocent, engaging and mythic. Gaiman is the kind of story tell that allows you to feels like a child again. His work isn't exploring complex themes, or shining light on the problems of the day but it does offer simple insights, in the case of Anansi boys, into the nature of family. Anansi Boys is a novel with some not-entirely unique but very likable characters with a tight plot and a concept with a warming child-like sensibility. Anansi Boys will make you smile, not necessarily because what's happening is funny, or because you relate to the characters but because it's the kind of story, and Gaiman's the kind of writer that can just make you do that.

ANANSI BOYS (hereinafter AB) is the archetype tale of the hero's quest but in place of the typical warrior hero is a fool, and, oh, it happens to take place in our days and there is the wonder of something magical yet not totally seen. Our fool of a hero is Fat Charlie. He used to be chubby as a kid but now he's in good enough shape yet everyone remembers him as Fat Charlie so the name sticks, much to his chagrin, and, it's all the fault of his father. Wait, did I tell you his father is a trickster African God? That makes it even harder on Fat Charlie because he's not dealing just with a mortal father but a father who is an African God and who can usually persuade people to do almost anything and make them usually laugh over it. At one point, back in the day, when Fat Charlie was a kid, his father tricked him into dressing like President Taft on President's Day and told him everyone else would be dressed that way, too. Well, they were not and Fat Charlie was belittled to tears by the other kids and his father thought it was all amusing. Now, don't start thinking Fat Charlie's father is overly cruel because there are other stories that favor him doing kind things for his son. Did I mention this father, known as Anansi, by the way, has two sons? Fat Charlie is the mortal one and this other son, known as Spider, is the one with all the powers. After Anansi appears to bite it while singing karaoke (something Fat Charlie could never do) there's a big funeral and a series of steps in the story lead to the two brothers linking up for the first time. Spider finally meets Fat Charlie, who lives in London but who grew up in Florida, and Spider decides he wants to live with Fat Charlie for a while. But . . . It turns out that Spider likes Fat Charlie's lifestyle so much that he steals his fiance and takes over his job while Fat Charlie goes off to talk to some witches (four old ladies living in a suburb) to have Spider banished. In doing so, he goes to another dimension where life first began and makes a deal with Bird Woman who has a grudge against Fat Charlie's family. What then takes place is a situation where a mortal and his demigod brother are attacked from several different fronts by this immortal, godlike Bird Woman. Oh, and Fat Charlie gets it for another girl but has to rescue his old fiance and her mother from another superpower in the Bahamas where he learns what it means to be a hero, even if he is truly the archetype fool. Overall, a superb urban fantasy with overlapping themes of coming of age, Pandora's Box, the twists and turns of life and how we all have family members we really want to get away from. Heh. And, on a far deeper level, one could also say this is about being human, even around the face immortal Gods.

This book is a bit hard for me to review because rather than noticing technique, I simply had the impression I'd read a cross between a folk tale and a modern story; the overall feeling is just 'Well, that was a cute read.' The characters within the story are easy to become fond of, or if anything, to understand as their thoughts and feelings are laid out for the reader. At times Anansi Boys is heartfelt when describing the feelings of love and affection, exasperation and tolerace for family. I love the way the two characters Fat Charlie and his brother Spider change throughout the book, and adopt traits of the other as they interact. This is a book about family, obligation, and life (as generic as that sounds).

It begins, as most things begin, with a song. In the beginning, after all, were the words, and they came with a tune. That was how the world was made, how the void was divided, how the lands and the stars and the dreams and the little gods and the animals, how all of them came into the world. They were sung. The story follows Fat Charlie Nancy as his life is forever and drasticly changed altered after he discovers that his father has died, that his father was a god and that he has a brother. These events send Fat Charlie’s normal nine to five existance into a tail spin as he struggles to regain control of his life. Neil Gaiman’s Anansi Boys is one of the most enveloping and engrossing books I have read in quite some time. The writing is wry and witty, the story is rich and the characters come to life from your first encounter with them. I could not put this book down and felt an immediate need to re-read it once I was done. I cannot recommend this book enough. Need to buy a last minute gift? Get them this book. Need something to read over the holidays? Get yourself this book. Bottom line is, READ THIS BOOK.

I listened to the audio book of this novel. Now I'll need to read AMERICAN GODS eventually. This book's rather intriguing to me and it is so different from other books that are in this genre, but then again, when one gets into a book that's in this sort of genre that it is found in, you're bound to find them differently written. Neil Gaiman's writings have always been readable by me so far, and I almost cannot wait to read another one of his novels!!

So far I've read Neil Gaiman's Stardust, The Graveyard book, Neverwhere and Anansi boys. Although I enjoyed them all, I really enjoyed this one. The characters are quirky and likeable, I especially liked Daisy and Graham Coats. This one is fantastical, a little creepy and humorous. My only gripe is the same gripe I have about the other Neil Gaiman books I've read...The relationships between the characters are a little shallow. I wish there was more depth. He has a lot of "love at first sight" going on and it starts to get a little predictable. Overall though, its a great story that comes together at the end.

The immediate comparison that sprang to mind on finishing Anansi Boys was, curiously enough, The Importance of Being Earnest. Only with gods, and an added murder. Still, like Wilde's work, this is certainly immensely engaging, entertaining and funny story and very much an enjoyable and pleasurable read. The only criticism is that it is just a bit too light to really give it quite enough substance. Unlike Gaiman's previous American Gods which was a hugely meaty novel this really isn't quite so affecting. Though maybe the comparison is somewhat unfair since it clearly deliberately sets out to be of a completely different style and lighter tone. What that means in the end though is that whilst it's a certainly a fun read it's not something that really creates much in the way of additional thought or resonance on its completion.

The tale of a trickster and a would-be trickster who only succeeds in convincing himself that his evil acts are necessary. In a world full of people ill-suited for their jobs, Gaiman seems to say that we all have dopplegangers out there, we're all divided selves, or as he says much more positively:"Each person who ever was or is or will be has a song. It isn't a song that anybody else wrote. It has its own melody, it has its own words. Very few people get to sing their own song. Most of us fear that we cannot do it justice with our voices, or that our words are too foolish or too honest, or too odd. So people live their songs instead." It's a strange bit of philosophy to fin in the midst of a fanciful tale but it's also what stays with one after one takes the ride to its end, when one reaches the center of the web that is this book. As the poet said "I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. I do not think that they will sing to me."

First, stop thinking like this book is a sequel to American Gods. Because it isn't. It's more like a spin-off. Second, look at the cover. There is a picture covered by a spider web. That web is the story that follows. Though I believed at first Gaiman had lost it with this one (too slow in parts, confused about why he kept some characters going, kept flipping around to different plots), I realized at the end that this book was, as it should have been, written as a spider's web. There are multiple strands of the whole web - at first separated by large expanses - but as you travel these strands towards the center of the web, the strands come closer and closer together until you reach the absolute center. And so it is with this story. We (by we, I mean those of the general public who have reviewed Anansi Boys) feel that Gaiman hasn't written this book as well as American Gods, but I believe that Gaiman has simply told us the story as Anansi the Spider would have: with songs as strands, interweaving and eventually coming closer together until the conclusion of all of the songs come to the center of the web. It is simply genius how Gaiman makes his book a story of Anansi - about Anansi and his children, as well as using the same style Anansi would have. A good book, a great story.

Fat Charlie Nancy learns that his recently deceased and estranged father was actually a storytelling trickster god, Anansi-- and that he has a brother, and enemies among the other old gods. His troubles begin when he impulsively invites the brother, Spider, home for a visit. Spider, who inherited some godlike tendencies, accepts-- and promptly takes over his entire life. I love the way Gaiman takes common experiences-- the adolescent feeling that your parents are an unbearable embarassment and the adult realization that they are complex individuals in their own right-- and turns them into a full-blown supernatural fantasy. Not to mention sibling rivalry gone horribly and fairly amusingly wrong. Gaiman plays Charlie's increasing misery for laughs. The playful, wry tone of the book reminds me of Douglas Adams, who Gaiman knew and worked with in his younger years-- and in fact Adams' "Dirk Gently" books played with a similar premise, that ancient gods continue to operate in the modern world. Gaiman isn't quite as laugh out loud funny, maybe, but his stories have more emotional depth and resonance, and I think he does a better job of tying up his plot and fleshing out his characters.

So fantastically awful. I have a longer review of this crapfest somewhere on my hard drive, but for now suffice to say: if this is your first Neil Gaiman book, you'll probably enjoy it. If its your fifth--as it was mine--you'll realize you're reading the exact same Neil Gaiman novel that you've read four times before, only worse and completely uninspired. Come on Neil, you're better than this. Crap. I imagine it might be fantastic if its your first Neil Gaiman book, but If you've read his other books this is essentially the exact same story with different details, and it's not nearly as good as its previous tellings. I like Neil Gaiman's books, but I found this one to be almost insulting in how much of a rehash it was of his previous works. I can imagine liking this if it was your introduction into Neil Gaiman's novels, but this is my fifth book of his that I've read and I could never escape the feeling that I'd seen all of this before, but much more interesting and with much more soul, in his previous books. It was like the book was following some sort of Gaiman-Novel recipe or formula--"Normal, boring dude gets pulled out of his droll life into some fantastical, mystical realm, finds himself reluctantly dropped into a crucial role in some sort of struggle, he fights against this drastic paradigm shift for most of the book until he comes to find himself so well-suited for the life of adventure and mysticism that he ends up opening up, becoming brave, saving the day, and embracing his new, fantastical life and abandoning the boring, droll life that he spent most of the book trying to return to." Richard in Neverwhere, Tristran in Stardust, Shadow in American Gods, Fat Charlie in Anasni Boys--all these heroes follow the exact same damn character growth trajectory, the only difference is that Fat Charlie's so damn boring and lifeless that his character just feels like he's going through the freaking Neil Gaiman-motions. I at least believed the other three characters. Gods were done better in American Gods, and the fantastical realms were done much better in Stardust and Neverwhere. Nothing in this book surprised me, made me laugh, or interested me. In fact, much of it just left me feeling...repulsed, almost, but that's a bit too strong. But suffice to say, Spider was such a repugnant character that none of the things he did seemed even remotely funny (ha ha, he starts an affair with his brother's fiancee by tricking her with magic into believing he's his brother, ha ha ha), and yet at the same time Fat Charlie was such a boring and lifeless character that I couldn't believe him enough to feel sorry for him. And I didn't like him enough to laugh at him. I just felt like it was hollow compared to the rest of Gaiman's works, which had such an effective sense of magic and wonderment to them, and created such immersive fantastical realms that you found yourself being absorbed into them every bit as much as the book's protagonist was--the effect being that you believed the world entirely, and were thus constantly surprised by the amazing things that were happening and developing, and thus found yourself completely believing the hero and relating that much more closely to him and his dilemma. That's the reason they work so well--because Gaiman has this almost amazing talent of pulling you into his worlds. If Gaiman's books weren't so immersive, they would just feel like a lot of random strange crap happening without any sort of rules or boundaries governing them, and you wouldn't care because you didn't feel a connection with the main character experiencing all this bizarre shit. Which is exactly what happened with Anansi Boys. It was almost like the book wasn't written by Gaiman, but was instead some piece of fan-fiction written by someone who didn't quite grasp what really made Gaiman's books work. It just all felt contrived. Maybe you'll like it if its your first Gaiman book. But if you've read his other, better books, I just can't imagine liking this one.

If you like this book, and it is so hard to imagine not liking it that my brain is hurting, then give yourself the best gift of all: buy the audiobook read by his good friend comedian Lenny Henry, who has narrated for the first (and only?) time with touching sensitivity, graceful sensibility and downright hysterical humor and terror, a Gaiman necessity in some books. Then go read American Gods for a very dark sequel-like book that isn't at all the sequel, but does feel like one. Really. Oh, it might be nice to pick up his older one-time collaboration with Terry Pratchett which has the nickname Good Omens, with a much longer subtitle. It might be out of sequence, but it surely does fit in nicely. What ARE you waiting for? Time is always wasting....

A book that's entirely too clever for it's own good, which is quite possibly why I enjoyed it so much. Despite a simple and mostly predictable plot, the book survives on the merit of the author's carefree attitude and numerous asides and meta-comments, mimicking the style of the myths and tales it draws from. It also has some of the most quotable paragraphs I've seen in a long time... I found it quite a bit more enjoyable than "American Gods", a similarly themed novel by the same author.

I listened to this book rather than read it. The reader was Lenny Henry and he was perfect for reading this book. He is Jamaican and he absolutely nailed the accents of the Caribbean characters.The story is about Fat Charley Nancy, a young man living in England about to be married. Then he is called by an old family friend who tells him that his father has died. He hasn't seen his father, who lived in Florida, for a number of years but he decides he should go to the funeral. While in Florida he is told, to his shock, that he has a brother. The old woman tells him that if he wants to meet him all he has to do is tell a spider. That opportunity arises soon after his return to England when his fiancee finds a spider in his bathtub. His brother, Spider, arrives and Fat Charley's life is turned upside-down. It's a mixture of fantasy, comedy and ghost story and I loved it.

This is actually the first Neil Gaiman book that I ever read. It is amazing through and through. It technically takes place in the same world as American Gods, and even has a character you might recognize from that book. However, having read American Gods is not a requirement for the enjoyment of Anansi Boys. Charlie Nancy (whom everyone calls Fat Charlie, despite the fact that he's not really fat) just lost his father, and while trying to deal with the funeral and burial, he gets roped into a world that he didn't know existed. His brother shows up to make his life all the more complicated, and all the while Fat Charlie just wants to get back to normal. A fantastic read, and the look at different methods of storytelling by Anansi himself are just amazing.

Two brothers, sons of the spider god Anansi, get acquainted with each other after the death of their father. A story of sibling rivalry is made all the more interesting as the protaganist, Fat Charlie, delves into the realms of magic and deities to get his brother to go away, regrets it afterwards, and subsequently makes up. I was enthralled and the book brought a smile more than a few times. Gaiman does it again!
