Fiction. The body of Ernie Baxter was just buried in the frozen earth of an Indiana winter, but Ernie's story is far from over. From beyond the pale, this newcomer to the heavenly scene observes the folks left down below--notably, his mother and onetime girlfriend Kyra--grieving his unexpected death. Kyra's husband Dain, a phony redneck with a trust-fund and a snowplow, wonders what the fuss is about. This unique novel mixes crisply written prose with the deft comic illustrations of underground artist Mike Lowery (4 full chapters done as comics!), delivering a witty and transcendental story of the legacy one man hoped to leave behind, and the twisted myth that actually remains.
