I'm sure you have heard of that old adage "never judge a book by its cover", well think of that when you look at the cover for this book. Yes the name is "Heaven" but there is so much more to this series than Heaven.
Heaven is a series of five books written by Mur Lafferty.
It is a whimsical, thought provoking series about two people who are best friends in life. Daniel and Kate die, go to Heaven, see that the "Christian Heaven" isn't what they expected and wasn't really "all that and a bag of chips". So, they set out as travelers wondering around and visiting all the different religions' Heavens; from Greek mythology to Dog Heaven. They discover that they are prophesied to bring about the end of times. That is only the beginning, the book just keeps getting better. I won't put anymore spoilers than that in here.
We go from Heaven to Hell, to Earth, to Wasteland and then to War in this unconventional journey of the afterlife.
I highly recommend this funny and wonderfully adventurous series. You can get these podiobooks from www.podiobooks.com as well as iTunes. If you have iTunes the links in the review will take you to each books download and information page. They are free for your enjoyment and no you don't have to have an iPod or Mp3 player. You can play then through iTunes or any media player on your PC. After you have listened to them feel free to come back and leave your own review in my comments.
Until next time, read until your eyes hurt and listen to podiobooks until your ears bleed.
