“I’ve been going at it in chunks and fangfuls, finding it more than acceptable. Anyone who takes on Scientologists is okay by me, kid.”
— HARLAN ELLISON
San Francisco Weekly
A mock Zagat guide to the lord’s domain, Dirk Quigby’s Guide to the Afterlife is a sly and satirical glimpse into what would happen if a Madison Avenue mad man gave heaven a PR makeover…
As the book develops, the titular ad man finds that his succinct reviews of the world’s religions inflame believers of all faiths It’s a risk the real-life author is also taking.
Considering her vocal support for scientific research and rational thought, and her role as an adviser for a number of science advocacy organizations, she probably doesn’t mind a bit of religious controversy All the better for us nonbelieving heathens: as King demonstrates, the devil also has the best jokes.

“Introduces new vocabulary wonderfully through the use of footnotes and definitions laced throughout the story…
Each chapter provides a sequence of action that is easy for the young reader to follow.”
