About this listen

Connor Gilmartin's inauspicious, but much beloved, mortal life comes to an untimely end when he discovers his wife in bed with one of his more ludicrous associates, Randall Allard Going. Death becomes a bit complicated when Gilmartin's out-of-body experience stays an out-of-body experience. Enraged at being so unceremoniously cut down, he avenges himself against his now panic-stricken murderer.

Enjoyable if meandering

I'm a huge Davies fan and I found this book funny and heartbreaking by turns.
The plot device used sometimes seems too roundabout and can be too distracting torward the end.
Really superb reading!

Most enjoyable

I have read the book more than once. I love it. Listening took my pleasure to a whole new level! I discovered more of the story. The performer is now my very favorite of any Audible reader.
I had recommended this to friends who routinely use Audible over printed materials. Now I understand why they liked it so much. It was the whole experience, story and storyteller.
