About This Book

(SHORT STORY: MYTHOLOGY, FANTASY, NAUTICAL ADVENTURE)



Between death and Eternity stands the ferryman.



No money, no ticket. No ticket, no passage. No passage, no Eternity.



For the newly dead, everlasting bliss awaits on the other side of the river Acheron. No bridges span it. No one can swim across it. A dilapidated ferry makes the only connection. The ferryman demands cash, value for value. No hard feelings. The Great Mystery of Eternity has ensnared us all.



Fair enough; however, thanks to his family's lack of classical education, Basil Wainwright has arrived without a dime to his name, let alone a coin under his tongue. Moreover, he has upon his person nothing of value to trade.



Stranded between death and Eternity, he must either earn his passage or face complete annihilation.



Contains a bonus story.
