Description
'Wacky humour bubbles through the polished narrative ... Holt doesn't skimp on the flashes of brilliance' - SFX
'A definite must for all fans of comic fantasy' - ENIGMA
As everyone knows, when great warriors die their reward is eternal life in Odin's great hall - otherwise known as Valhalla.
But Valhalla has changed. It's grown. It's diversified. Just like any corporation, the Valhalla Group has had to adapt to survive.
Unfortunately, nothing could have prepared it for the arrival of Carol Kortright, one-time cocktail waitress, currently dead, and not at all happy.
Sparkling comic fantasy from one of Britain's sharpest, funniest writers.

Person
Tom Holt's first book was published when he was just thirteen and, to his horror, he was hailed as an infant prodigy. While studying at Oxford however he discovered Bar Billiards and turned from poetry to comic fiction.
