Great suspense

Humor and humanity mixed with dread. Really drawn into the characters and story. Detente gets a new context

Interesting

I had a great time listening to this modern tale of good vs evil. Mr. Mosley did a great job encapsulating this idea. Looking forward to listening to more novels from Walter Mosley.

Another Great Creation

Another great creation from Walter Mosley. I have seen movies and read many books on peoples account about the after life this was the best. Great novel. I even read the book while it was playing.

Worth every second

Great listen. Could not tear away from the story and the narration. Truly a philosophical masterpiece in words and images.

very fun

Theology and philosophy usually aren't fun, but the gifted Walter Mosley found a way.

This is a lot of fun and also thought provoking. If you liked The Good Place, this is for you. If you questioned too much in Sunday school, this is also for you.
