Lafferty is a funny writer, with a clear obsession for afterlife mythos and an admirable hand at drawing likable characters. She’s also got excellent podcasting chops (no surprise there, she literally wrote the book on the subject), so this thing sounds great.
~Cory Doctorow, author of Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom and Little BrotherI didn’t listen to Heaven at first, because George Hrab told me it must be really boring. Then one day my wife and I listened to it on a road trip. He was wrong. Heaven WASN’T boring; it had gods and sex and swords and action and several different answers to life. We loved it so much, right now we’re going through Hell. And we can’t wait to get down to Earth.
~Steve Eley, editor of Escape PodThere was once a time when I resisted listening to Mur Lafferty’s work, mostly because I dance to my own beat. I’m contrary. I don’t like to follow the crowd … and the crowd has been singing Mur’s praises since 2004. But when I finally listened to Heaven, it all became clear. The story is a brilliant mashup of mythology, religion, and endless creativity and possibilities. Mur Lafferty isn’t as good as the crowd says she is. She’s better.
~J.C. Hutchins, author of the 7th Son trilogy and Personal Effects: Dark ArtHeaven is a sexy, sophisticated and supernatural romp through pantheon after pantheon; kind of like a kegger for the Gods.
~Scott Sigler, author of Earthcore, Ancestor, Infection, Contagious, and The Rookie…and you managed to write something my wife and I both liked. I would have thought that was impossible.
