Told in her own distinctive Northern voice, exactly as she speaks, Granny Irene's Guide to the Afterlife is not for those who like their books to be written in Queen's English. Nor is it for those who are easily offended, or are reluctant to have their opinions and beliefs challenged. However if you are looking for a character driven, unique, fast paced, quirky novel, which will challenge your perspective of the "afterlife" then read on... Raised Catholic, Irene Wilde is shocked and annoyed to discover that not only is she dead but that she has been sent to Viking Heaven and that her granddaughter, Chloe, is somehow responsible for her demise. Realising that the Gods are facing apocalyptic choices of their own she quickly makes her escape and heading back to earth in search of the truth and justice Irene quickly becomes entangled in a web of her own making and after an emotionally charged encounter with her former lover, Harry, she discovers that her beloved Britannia has been taken over by the forces of evil and embarks upon a one woman crusade against the futuristic government of Totty Tax Tim and the Panty Pincher. A traumatic encounter with a whole host of sinister creatures including a trio of fire dragons which have swept in from the Icelandic Volcanos, some blistering home truths from the Nordic World Serpent and a shocking and distressing encounter in the flagship government brothel all leave Irene drained and fighting for her emotional survival, so it falls to the spirit of Anthony Mitchell, a customs officer brutally slain by pirates on St Mary’s Island in the year 1722 and with whom Irene unexpectedly finds solace to help her start putting together the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle which spans thousands of years. Granny Irene’s Guide to the Afterlife – Revenge Part One is the beginning of Irene’s many supernatural adventures…
