A Dirty Job by Christopher Moore
This was a nice, twisted story about a beta male named Charlie Asher and his unfortunate chance encounter with the powers of Death. (Yes, with a capital D)
I liked Christopher Moore's literary style. His irreverant and humorous take on this poor sap's life made my sides hurt with sympathy and laughter. I'm going to pick up one of his other books (with a rather amusing-sounding title), "
Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal".
Has anyone else read any of Christopher Moore's books?
