A Dirty Job

Short Review: A decent funny book (Although with a lot of bad language). Asher is a ‘death dealer'. Someone that helps moves souls from one body to another (sort of reincarnation, but a different perspective on it than normal). This is somewhat similar to the concept behind Piers Anthony's On A Pale Horse, but funnier.

Overall, it enjoyed the book, but I wan't thrilled about the end. Part of it was obvious from about 1/3 of the way in and another part I just didn't think had to happen. But since most of the book was establishing the characters and telling the story, it was still worth reading. I didn't like it nearly as much as the last Christopher Moore book I read (Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff), but I liked it enough that I will read more Christopher Moore.
