Similar vein to 'American Gods'?

'Ello

Does anyone know of any books in a similar vein to 'American Gods' by Neil Gaiman? If you haven't read it it's about gods who were created by belief as their followers migrated to America, and then were left with no belief to fend for themselves. Other books which are somewhat similar in idea are Modern Magic, A calculus of magic, and Terry Pratchett's gods on Discworld. (Reccomendations need not be comedy).

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Isn't Anansi Boys the follow-up?

Sort of, Karin, although it's very different in tone and doesn't have the broad scope of American Gods... Still well worth reading, though.

I started Anansi boys, but just couldn't get into it.I have to admit, the tone put me off a bit. I have American Gods, am just waiting for the inclination to read it to strike.
