4/5
As with Gaiman's book, this is a meandering masterpiece. The thrill is in the journey, the destination very much an afterthought. Go to Full Review Alan Sepinwall Uproxx 06/20/2017
It's a promising start to the finale, but after that, we're back to this extremely slow-burning, intentionally confusing war between the old gods and the new. Go to Full Review Akhil Arora Gadgets360 08/28/2018
