About this audiobook
It soon becomes apparent that our new owners, the Venturi brothers, have a very different perspective on all sorts of things. Take Good and Evil, for example. For them, it's an outdated concept that never worked particularly well in the first place.
Unfortunately, the sudden disappearance of right and wrong, while welcomed by some, raises certain concerns amongst those still attached to the previous team's management style.
In particular, there's one of the old gods who didn't move out with the others. A reclusive chap, he lives somewhere up north, and only a handful even believe in him.
But he's watching. And he really does need to know if you've been naughty or nice.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5What if God (the JCI version, known as Dad throughout) and Jay decide to give up being in charge of the Earth. What if Dad had another son, Kevin, who quite liked the earth and the people on it. What if the people who bought the earth from Dad were venture capitalists called the Venturi Brothers and basically wanted the world profitable and what if there was a god lurking somewhere near the North Pole, the Red Lord, who didn't take this lying down and wanted it to be fixed. Into this mix are some humans who work for Heaven or Hell and one explorer who can't leave a mystery unpoked. The end is a bit Deus ex but overall it's hilarious and the pokes at humanity, venture capitalism and other issues is hilarious. I really have to get back into reading more of Tom Holt.It's fun, very readable and exactly what I needed.
