About this listen
Joshua Mason is an everyday man cursed with immortality.
Joshua Mason has been alive for thousands of years. He doesn't know how or why it happened, only that he can die like any man, but will always return.
When you live forever, everything you love will die, so he decided long ago to not become attached. That all changed when he met Doreen. With her, he found something more than the woman he loves, after thousands of years of wandering, he found his place in the world. Now she's dying of old age. Distraught, Joshua promises to look after Charlie, Doreen's grandson, who is thirty-six, but forever a child due to a terrible brain injury.
Keeping Charlie safe means making money to keep Charlie's world—a crumbling motel in the middle of a barren desert—afloat. Mason makes this money by selling his life on the dark web to wealthy people who enjoy the ritual of murdering him.
And now, when Mason only wants to mourn the loss of his wife, he discovers he sold his life to some very dangerous people and that Charlie is not as innocent as he seems.

This is what it means to “have it all.” Then, a familiar cough from the adjacent room jolts her out of her work. It can’t be possible. Marley is dead. She has been for years.

Story
Twenty-one-year-old Hardy “Hardly” Reed—good-natured, easygoing, usually stoned—is drifting through life. A minimum-wage scare actor at an amusement park, he avoids unnecessary effort and unrealistic ambitions. Then one day he notices two children, around six or seven, sitting all alone on a bench. Hardly checks if they’re okay and sees injuries on both children. Someone is hurting these kids. He reports the incident to Child Protective Service. That should be the end of it. After all, Hardly's not good at looking out for himself so the last thing he wants to do is look out for anyone else.

Story
Frederick Fife was born with an extra helping of kindness in his heart. If he borrowed your car, he’d return it washed with a full tank of gas. The problem is there’s nobody left in Fred’s life to borrow from. At eighty-two, he’s desperately lonely, broke, and on the brink of homelessness. But Fred’s luck changes when, in a bizarre case of mistaken identity, he takes the place of grumpy Bernard Greer at the local nursing home. Now he has warm meals in his belly and a roof over his head—as long as his poker face is in better shape than his prostate and that his look-alike never turns up.

Best book I read in the past five years
This was the best book I read in the past five years. The story and characters were beyond what I had expected. I love mystery stories, but this one was so well thought out, I'm not even sure I can describe why it was riveting and a page-turner. I would find myself staying in my car in the driveway to finish a chapter because the story was so compelling. Congratulations to the author for a job well done.

Refreshingly New Fiction
It’s as if peak Stephen King meets Gaiman’s American Gods, without the thinly veiled political propaganda…. Great storytelling from a great writer.

Ambitious & Clever Story
Excellent first novel. Joshua Mason has lived for millennium. He never ages, never gets old. When he gets killed, he regenerates a new body. Themes of immortality vs. mortality, indulgence and responsibility. A page-turner mashup with hints of Flannery O’Conner, Chaucer’s Pardoners Tale, Washington Irving and Cormac McCarthy. Set in a backdrop of modern day self indulgence, the ever-reaching tentacles of the state, and the denizens of power, it is a back-handed critique of modern society. it is also an exceedingly ambitious and clever story. Bravo. While a bit crass and a bit choppy in the time-sequencing, it is still a worthwhile read.

Best story I’ve read in years. Nolte says it’s the only one he plans to write, and it’s worth many a reread!
Great characters, very creative. A blend of sci-fi, romance, crime drama, philosophy - a master work.

Keeps you guessing until the very end
I had no idea what to expect from this book. The premise was intriguing. One of the most thought-provoking and enjoyable reads I have had in a long time. At some point, it does meander a bit, but the payoff at the end makes it all worthwhile and ties everything together. Would highly recommend it, and I’m going to give it another listen.
