Book excerpt: Hey, how's it going? My name is Bobby and this little gem is the story of my death. It ain't pretty, I'm warning you. So I woke up in Hell, lucky me right? As if eternal damnation wasn't bad enough, I got assigned to Reaper School. Only the cream of the crap wind up there, it's like Hollywood for sinners. Why me? I wish I knew. I don't even know how I ended up in Hell in the first place! I did things I'm not proud of to earn my scythe. I had to. The alternative wasn't an option; tormented for the rest of time by Satan's most accomplished torturers. No thanks. Queens, New York was my territory; not exactly paradise but it was better than Hell. It didn't take me long to realize that stealing souls was no picnic either. Believe it or not the newly departed weren't exactly thrilled to see me. The fear in their voices and panic in their eyes as I dragged them through the portal to Hell - it would've killed me if I wasn't already dead. And then I met Maria. Yeah, she was an Angel. And yeah, she was a sworn enemy of Reapers in a war older than time. But she was also beautiful and stubborn and a bit of a badass. And she did what no one else would - she spoke to me! It was love at first sight...for me anyway. For Maria...not so much. The second time we met things got weird. After getting trapped in the living world we accidentally uncovered Satan's dirty little secret. The sneaky bastard was building an army of Reapers to destroy Heaven, turn the world into Hell 2.0 and kill God. Ambitious right? I should've just minded my own business. I wanted to but I couldn't. Some people might deserve eternal damnation but the few hundred million that don't need a...a hero I guess. All I gotta do now is tell a couple of lies, kill a few demons, trick a god or two and save...well, pretty much everything. No biggie right? I got this...right? DEATH SUCKS is an epic journey through life, death and the previously unknown. Join Bobby, a regular guy with terrible luck and a knack for saying the wrong thing at the absolute worst time, on his misguided adventure through Hell and his afterlife under the hood.
