You really need to read American Gods. Especially if you ever did do more with those two (which would be kinda cool).

Heh. Thank you. I did eventually read American Gods (and, very recently, Anansi Boys), but I hadn't at the time when "How Many Miles to Babylon?" was written and summarily rejected. I think it's because there was a road trip and sort of Loki.

What's Folk of the Air?

The Folk of the Air (1986) is a novel by Peter S. Beagle, featuring Joe Farrell and his lute, Julie Tanikawa and her motorcycle, Ben Kassoy and the goddess who has moved in with him, and a very thinly disguised SCA. I think it's often considered a minor novel, because I'm not sure it's ever been reprinted and I'm always having to recommend it to people, but I really like it. You might, too; it has early music and strange academia.
