Description
Dave Marwood's trapped in a soul-crushing dead-end job. He's in love with his work colleague Melanie and his only friend Gary is a conspiracy theory nut.
His life is going nowhere until he has a Near Death Experience - though Death thinks of it as a Near Dave Experience. Soon, he discovers gifts he never knew he possessed and a world he never dreamed existed. One where the Grim Reaper is a hard-drinking, grumpy Billy Joel fan and the undead are bored, lonely, and dangerous.
They're saving the world from ghosts, zombies, vampires, werewolves, and medium-sized apocalypses. After a nice cup of tea and a biscuit.
What readers are saying about the first three parts of the How To Be Dead Comedy Fantasy Series: How To Be Dead, Paper Cuts, and Old Haunts:
"Dave Turner is a funny man and 'How To Be Dead' is a brilliant read."
"If Neil Gaiman and Simon Pegg sat down to write a story together they might come up with something like this."
"Hilarious and unexpectedly moving."
"Laugh out loud funny... It's been a while since an author has made me laugh more than Pratchett does."
"Each part of this trilogy is a compelling story which seems to gather pace."
"If you like Tom Holt, Douglas Adams or Terry Pratchett, Dave Turner's books will fit perfectly into your collection."
