In a world full to bursting with would-be heroes, Jim couldn't be less interested in saving the day. His fireballs fizzle. He's awfully grumpy. Plus, he's been dead for about sixty years. When a renegade necromancer wrenches him from eternal slumber and into a world gone terribly, bizarrely wrong, all Jim wants is to find a way to die properly, once and for all.

The sense i got from this book is the author took moments from other authors, the mad real sarcastically British characters of Terry Pratchett, the darkness of Neil Gaiman and the adventure of Douglas Adams, and smashed them all together. These are not bad things as they all work together perfectly here in this book. Jim is alive and is meant to be dead, and he really isn't happy about being alive, so he goes on a quest to find out why his alive and how he can die, on the journey he meets some very colourful characters, one you'll never forget "slippery john" trust me you'll read this book and never forget that name, it's used a lot. The characters are all great and really well written and fit in this world, some are average, but that's fine as you'll grow to enjoy there failings. This book had a 2 laugh out loud moments for me, and 1 chuckle, the rest of the comedy was average and fuled by swearing at points, none of this is an issue, just if like you was expecting a laugh a minute terry pratchett world, you'd be disappointed, this is more a laugh every 5 minutes. A lot of this book is story spoilers, so not much i say, other than, if your a gamer, games designer, adventurer or lover of odd fantasy, then this is the perfect book for you, this being the author's first published novel, is something spectacular and definitely a diamond in the rough and one that should be picked up and just experienced by more people, as i honestly think you'dbe doing yourself a disservice for a good chuckle and laugh and to block out the world around you for a few hours.
