The Limpet Syndrome (book one)
John’s dead...but that’s just the beginning.
Hell has a problem. Two, actually. The souls of Sandy Logan and Ian Noble are missing. This, as it happens, is a big deal. Brimstone, the demon responsible for the Soul Catcher, believes the most likely outcome is the end of the Universe.
It’s obviously only a guess: It’s never happened before.
Soul Catchers (book two)
No one can live forever.
John’s gone, and even he doesn’t truly know where. Demons, pigeons, gods, and a band of ex-dictators in plastic bodies are all eager to find him. Will they get to him before he can enact his revenge?
Dead Ends (book three)
Is there a happy ever afterlife?
War is coming! Against gods, between species, and against the afterlife itself. Heroes will emerge from unlikely places, and John will yet again be forced to intervene in the future of mankind.
Existential Crisis (companion book)
A face-off between science and religion. Demon Top Trumps. A 14-billion-year timeline and the truth about pigeons. The definitive guide to the afterlife and a must listen for fans of the trilogy. Only available in this box set and to Limpet Club members.

Long Imaginative Weird Adventures
Three books as one makes for a very long audible listen. Especially as traversing different hellish, earthly, and heavenly universes gets very descriptive and imaginative throughout. You really get your imagination twisted, expanded, at at times stretched with this trilogy.
There’s an audio error in book 2 Soul Catchers Chapter 17. The dialogue of the Mr Noir character is missing from a conversation 18:05-07:56 - 19:49-06:12.
Spoilers may follow.
The bit where Grace explains what grace is had me tearing up.
The giving birth scene when Nash becomes a bunny, was unbelievably crazy weird.
The thing about describing hellscapes is it’s often difficult for readers to envision what the author has in his mind.
When Grace the neutral explains her love near the end I absolutely burst into tears of emotion, such simple yet profound words of explaining what love is.
The way each chapter cuts off at random cliffhangers and then starts up again in someone else’s storyline, is confusing. Even when it goes back to the other storyline eventually at random.
Very preachy at the end with Jon’s speech.
Overall a wild and weird book with characters of many species on Earth. My favourite characters were Sandy and Ian in book 1, and Scrumpy in books 2 and 3.

Hitch hickeys guide to the afterlife
Very good, story is trippy and complicated, then simple all at once.
Calls in lots of parts of your imagination with some snort funny moments.
Voicing is excellent I ♥ scrumpy

Fantastically Funny And A Lot For The Money
This is a brilliant series and an absolute steal as a set of three for one credit. Tony Moyle's style of writing will make you laugh out loud and leave you wanting more. There are so many unique characters that on their own would make good stories, but combined make you wonder what the author has been smoking. Aubrey Parsons narration adds personality to the characters and really brings them to life. Books you can listen to again and again, and hear something new each time.

So good I had to listen to it twise
This book is definitely in my top 5 best books of all time. Both the story and the performance are superb. I was a hazard on the road, as I was laughing so hard it made me cry. My only regret is that I cannot hear it for the first time again.
