Charlie Asher is a pretty normal guy with a normal life, married to a bright and pretty woman who actually loves him for his normalcy. They're even about to have their first child. Yes, Charlie's doing okay—until people start dropping dead around him, and everywhere he goes a dark presence whispers to him from under the streets. Charlie Asher, it seems, has been recruited for a new position: as Death.

It's a dirty job. But, hey! Somebody's gotta do it.

Well written and good narrator. Just not exactly my style. I tried very hard to like it, but couldn't wait to be done with it.

Just not my cup of tea

I was sorry this was over- I'd grown attached to the characters and the world this author (and the narrator) creates.

very entertaining

It is hard to rate this book because some of the dialogue was laugh out loud funny, and the characters (the human ones) were very endering, but the story went from interesting concept to beyond stupid with ravens that live in the sewer. It is my first Christopher Moore book, so I am going to give him another try because I did enjoy the witty dialouge.

Sometimes LOL sometimes bored to tears

This book is an absurdist tale of how Grim Reapers work. Fisher Stevens does a really fantastic job with the voices. It's fun, very funny in spots, just a really enjoyable story if you're looking for something different.

Very Surprising, an unexpected joy. It has been quite some time since a book has made me burst out loud in uncontrollable laughter. If you can get by the language (a lot of "F" bombs), then you will certainly enjoy this smart, very entertaining, enjoyable journey into the "darker" side of our world.

A Good Job on
