The show spreads Neil Gaiman's single novel across three seasons and reworks it heavily, adding original characters and storylines and drawing in elements from the companion novel Anansi Boys. It was cancelled before finishing the book's story, so no season cleanly ends the novel. The novel remains the single thing to read throughout.
