Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are any religions true? What is life for? What happens after we die? Cynical, hard-headed reporter Gerok doesn't waste time on such things - till he dies, and suddenly it matters. Being sent to Hell was a shock, but not a surprise: after all, he'd been warned. Being rescued from Hell was the surprise. And that's just the start of an adventure that takes him from the cold depths of Nifleheim to the peaceful heights of the Pure Land of the Sages, to the Old Gods and beyond, to a logical end that has a meaning for us all. By turns poetic, crude, wry, reflective, violent and philosophical, Farther Up and Farther In is a practical man's search for practical answers to the deepest of questions.
