Customer Reviews

Great humor......great story.

I have liked all of Egerton's books and this one is very good. His books are good to read and I love the auido versions.

Down home fun!

Twisted- my one word description of the author, Clyde Edgerton. He's a Dave Barry from the deep south. Just when you think you've figured out the plot, he adds a new twist to the story. Did you ever think you'd see a pink tombstone? Or a circular runway? And who would ever think to steal a grave...not the stone, but the spot. Great reading!

You'll laugh out loud & amp; what's better than that?

I've read all of Clyde Edgerton's books & amp; whereas I like them very much primarily for their humor, this is by far the funniest. Not just the funniest Edgerton book, but perhaps the funniest book I've ever read & amp; I'm a voracious reader. There's a book called "Scoring in Heaven." It contains photos of tombstones & amp; other memorials which seem like subject matter that shouldn't be that funny but the pictures are highly amusing. This book deals with death but while the characters are still alive
