A mind-bogglingly funny story about the battles and adventures inside our own heads. Everyone has a Lifetime Deed Counter (LDC). It works like this-You offer to help with the housework- Lifetime Good Deeds +1You steal your little brother's sweets- Lifetime Bad Deeds +1Looks straightforward, huh? But what if your every thought was disputed by opposing forces of good and evil - by an angel wearing ray bans (called Windleberry) and a demon in the form of a wart (called Muddlespot)? And within your mind they were fighting a fierce battle over your actions, a battle dictated by a game of poker?When Muddlespot is promoted from a devil's janitor to special agent, the pressure is on for him to infiltrate Sally Jones and make her Bad. If he doesn't, it will be Very Bad for him. But as his mission leads him down Sally's ear and into the deepest recesses of her mind, all becomes unclear. Just what does it mean to be good? And can it be good to be bad? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Hell is in trouble, special agent after special agent has been defeated by these angels and therefore proved to be useless. The boss has to be seen to do something, so his boss won't decide he's useless as well (You REALLY don't want to be seen as useless when your bosses are demons) and this is where Muddlespot comes in. Technically he is only a re animated wart, whose only job is to be a cleaner in Pandemonium, and is actually leading a surprisingly blameless life. The thing is, he succeeds where the other special agents have failed. Then all hell (and heaven) breaks loose.
I truly enjoyed this book, and its opening was without fault. Dickinson has an interesting and engaging writing style, his characters are fun, and I was really impressed by some of his satirical descriptions. But the ending left a lot to be desired. It felt like the point Dickinson trying to make wasn't fully developed and explored, and I didn't find the climax that climactic.
Still this is a good book, and worth a read, but not brilliant. ( )
