There is a life after death, but only for the terminally cool...
Jo-Jo Dyas doesn't believe he has any reason to live, but then he finds
the surprisingly lively dead girl in the culvert and she convinces him
otherwise. She and her punk band, the Fiendish Lot, come from the
Afterlife, a strange, colorless place where souls sometimes pause on
the journey between this world and the next. When Jo-Jo follows her
there, he gets a chance to make right all the things that have gone
wrong in his life... but only if he can figure out how before he
fades away into nothing. Maybe the answer lies in Jo-Jo's late-breaking
realization: Being alive is kind of cool.
Rude, raw, and
blisteringly funny, Andrew Auseon's new novel is like one of those
insanely catchy songs that you can't forget and won't want to. So pay
attention: The afterlife you save may be your own.
