TobinElliott | Dec 25, 2023 |   I didn't know what to expect but I loved the damned to earth storyline as his ghost couldn't move on until he found out who the serial killer was and what he / she had to do with his death. James's writing made me feel the pain for James True's wife and daughter and even read like a movie, making me gasp at certain moments and want to get onto the next page to see what could possibly happen next.

"I wasn't there when I died..." Jim True knows. He has returned from an out-of-body experience to find he has been brutally murdered and his body mutilated. No one can see him, no one can hear him, no one, except his killer, knows he still exists. Freed from his body, True embarks on a quest to find his killer and discover why and how he has managed to survive. As he closes in on his murderer, True discovers that even the very people he loved and trusted have betrayed him. He meets his killer, a strange and sinister figure who can also leave his body at will. An epic and deadly battle ensues between True and a seemingly unstoppable and hideous serial killer - a man now intent on even more murders, including True's wife and child...

Great opening line: "I wasn't there when I died."
Then Herbert proceeds to eschew any forward motion with the plot, spending about the first hundred pages—a solid fifth of the book—dragging the reader through James True's entire freaking life, from childhood to current job...and not in an entertaining way.
And when he finishes that, he gives far more information than any reader would ever need on the inner workings of an ad agency.
It literally takes him thirteen chapters to finally get back round to not being in his body when he died. And by then?
...Yeah, I just didn't care.
DNF, no rating.
