Heaven Is a Misfiled Ticket

A parallel‑narrative comic fantasy where every animal heaven mirrors work, family, and love—one misrouting at a time.

Heaven is not what anyone expected—especially Elliott, a chronically overworked middle manager who wakes up in the afterlife to discover the system is held together with sticky notes, misfiled tickets, and badly labeled heavens. Instead of harps and clouds, he’s reassigned to “Dog Heaven,” where the goodest boys have performance reviews, squeaky toys have seniority, and even tennis balls have halos.

When Elliott uncovers neighboring heavens—Bird Heaven, Fish Heaven, Zoo Heaven, and a mysterious department for “Cat‑Adjacent Things”—he realizes the entire operation runs like a glitchy corporate help desk on the edge of collapse. To fix the mess (and maybe his own life in the process), he has to audit the afterlife, survive spiritual HR, and untangle the one disastrous misfiled ticket that might send everything crashing down.

Perfect for fans of offbeat, feel‑good speculative fiction, this darkly funny, heart‑warming novel turns the afterlife into the world’s strangest office comedy. Dog Heaven mixes absurd bureaucracy, sharp humor, and surprising tenderness in a story about second chances, found family, and what it really means to have a life well lived—even after it’s technically over.

Readers who love quirky, character‑driven stories, workplace satire, and emotionally resonant humor will find a new favorite in this weird, wonderful trip through the heavens nobody ordered but everyone somehow deserves.
