From the 2012 John W. Campbell Award Nominee and two-time Parsec Award WinnerHere's what people are saying about The Afterlife Series:"Lafferty is a funny writer, with a clear obsession for afterlife mythos and an admirable hand at drawing likable characters... one of the most promising writers... It's great to see her turning out such good work already!" ~BoingBoing.com "Full of surprises and pointed observations about human behaviour, Heaven is a terrific debut." ~Minister Faust, author of From The Notebook of Dr. Brain and The Alchemists of KushOriginally one of the top 10 podcasts from podiobooks.com, Heaven is now available in ebook!What if you went to Heaven and, well, it wasn't all that? Would you leave?After their deaths, best friends Kate and Daniel learn that Heaven is not their cup of tea, so to speak. Frankly, it's boring.So they leave.They begin visiting the afterlives of other religions, other times, even other species. But they realize turmoil keeps churning back on earth, and Kate and Daniel discover secrets between themselves, and secrets about the world they left, and they begin to wonder if their "aimless" wandering is part of a much bigger design.Heaven is the first book in the epic Afterlife Series that began as a free podcast and remains one of the top five most downloaded podcast books. It will be followed by Hell, Earth, Wasteland, and War. "Mur Lafferty’s Heaven is a heartfelt, engaging fantasy. It’s like a Unifying Theory for all religions and mythologies, binding together diverse cosmologies into a coherent, end-of-the-world tale in which the deepest human values may not be enough to save us." - Minister Faust
