✦ Synopsis

Intriguing and compelling... a tale that grips until the very last page - Jodi Taylor, bestselling author of The Chronicles of St Mary's. The Things We Learn When Were Dead is about how small decisions can have profound and unintended consequences, but how we can sometimes get a second chance. On the way home from a dinner party, Lorna Love steps into the path of an oncoming car. When she wakes up she is in what appears to be a hospital but a hospital in which her nurse looks like a young Sean Connery, she is served wine for supper, and everyone avoids her questions. It soon transpires that she is in Heaven, or on HVN, because HVN is a lost, dysfunctional spaceship, and God the aging hippy captain. She seems to be there by accident or does God have a higher purpose after all? Despite that, The Things We Learn When Were Dead is neither sci-fi nor fantasy. It is a book about memory and how, if we could remember things slightly differently, would we also be changed? In HVN, Lorna can at first remember nothing. But as her memories return some good, some bad she realises that she has decisions to make and that, maybe, she can find a way back home. Clever and compelling... this book is hugely original and well worth a readhugely enjoyable. Book Bag A gem of a booka really good book about life and growing up.
