Fat Charlie Nancy has always been ashamed of his dad. When his dad dies Charlie discovers his dad was the god Anansi and that he has a brother, Spider, he doesn't remember. Charlie invites Spider for a visit and Spider causes trouble with Charlie's job and his fiancé Rosie. The book starts a bit slow and Charlie is rather annoying at the beginning of the book.

Enjoyed this but not quite as much as American Gods which was brilliant. It was fun revisiting a character from AG:)
