One minute, Matthew Welborn is strutting out the gym with marriage on his mind and a promotion on his paycheck. The next, he wakes up on a chaise sporting a splitting migraine, bloody clothes, and a bullet in his forehead. Welcome to the Afterlife. Home to every deceased follower of every religion known to mankind. It's the paradise resort for the happily religiously dead. And Matthew is very dead. Very skeptical. And very pissed off. Forced to finish out his 'Spiritual Evaluation' before reincarnation, Matthew's plans of sneaking to Earth and finding his murderer are put on indefinite hiatus. Enter The Big Five, a gang of powerful, diverse gods that oversee all universal affairs, including taming Lucifer and occasionally saving humanity. So maybe if Matthew can swallow his Agnostic pride long enough, The Big Five will return him to the love he left behind and the future he lost. Not necessarily without a cost. Good thing they're recruiting desperate naive souls into their ranks... Part screwy social commentary, part shameless cultural irritant, Kay Elle's glowing debut novel is sure to startle, dazzle, and scare. Amalgamating hundreds of major world religions into one colorful puree, The Big Five examines the tragedy and hilarity of modern life with liberal amounts of sass and hysteria. It's a riotous tale of epic proportions.
