Death and the Devil

A BRILLIANTLY DARK AND WITTY ANTHOLOGY What happens when Death decides to take up poetry? When the Devil's carefully laid plans go awry? When the Incarnation of War discovers that the only thing more terrible than war is one where the dead don't die? In this delightfully inventive collection of short stories about Death, ancient cosmic entities find themselves navigating the absurdities of existence with the same confusion, determination, and occasional incompetence as the mortals they oversee. From poetry workshops to World War II, from speed dating disasters to bureaucratic nightmares that span millennia, these stories blend dark philosophical depth with unexpected humor.summer sunset glowsanother day now concludestime runs out for you
