Great suspense

Humor and humanity mixed with dread. Really drawn into the characters and story. Detente gets a new context

Interesting

I had a great time listening to this modern tale of good vs evil. Mr. Mosley did a great job encapsulating this idea. Looking forward to listening to more novels from Walter Mosley.

Another Great Creation

Another great creation from Walter Mosley. I have seen movies and read many books on peoples account about the after life this was the best. Great novel. I even read the book while it was playing.

Worth every second

Great listen. Could not tear away from the story and the narration. Truly a philosophical masterpiece in words and images.

very fun

Theology and philosophy usually aren't fun, but the gifted Walter Mosley found a way.

This is a lot of fun and also thought provoking. If you liked The Good Place, this is for you. If you questioned too much in Sunday school, this is also for you.

great book

I think this should be a movie in the making. I was at the edge of my seat from beginning to end

I’m Sorry to this Man, but Where Have I BEEN!?!

This author, his style of writing, and his story were completely unknown to me before Masterclass. (He’s incredible!) As a young Black woman who has focused on female authors of color, I missed out, and I don’t know how, but this was a treat. I will absolutely be reading more by Mr. Mosley.

What is the difference between Heaven and Hell

Excellent, this book was so thought provoking. Things that are right can also be wrong. Question, what decides heaven and Hell

AMAZING

Walter Mosley is AMAZING and AWSOME! How does he do it? Happily, who knows (smile)!

Riveting

I enjoyed this tale between good and evil so much, that I listened to it in one sitting! It needs to be a movie. Mr Mosley grasps of black dialect is honest and respectful. The concept is intriguing. Thank you Walter Mosley!
