Mostly Murders

Being raised by the dead was, in Mal’s own words, a living nightmare.

A funny, wacky, paranormal mystery with a unique approach to magic. Malowin, Mal, Gladstone is a reluctant necromancer. He’s forced to deal with his undead and very ungrateful parents and dysfuntional family, he’s forced to join a secret Order and he’s forced to solve a magical serial killer mystery if he wants to stay alive.

One part paranormal worldbuilding, one part coming of age, one part found family, and ten parts comedy, Any More Questions for the Corpse? is funny, a little serious, a little touching and very entertaining and different.

Any More Questions for the Corpse? features magic, vampires and zombies, but this is no Hogwarts, Dracula or The Last of Us. It relates to these worlds the same way Discworld relates to traditional fantasy, carving out its own unique, crazy and hilarious place alongside the far more serious examples that come to mind when thinking of magical worlds and the undead.

If you enjoy dry wit, sarcasm and parody and love the idea of an alternative, non-mainstream take on the idea of a secret parallel world filled with magic and the perils of the undead, this is a story for you. Expect the unexpected in this exploration of humour, death, self-discovery and purpose in this magical debut novel that will hopefully lead to many more books from the author in the future.
