HTML:With more clever, dark humor and zany silliness, Dale E. Basye sends Milton and Marlo Fauster back for thirds in another laugh-out-loud installment of the popular series Heck. After his second escape from Bea "Elsa" Bubb, the Principal of Darkness, Milton Fauster makes his way to Blimpoâ??the circle of the otherworldly reform school, Heck, where he's sure his friend Virgil is sentenced. Virgil's only crime is being, well, plump. Milton has to wonder if that's really enough to justify eternal darnation. And what Milton finds in Blimpo horrifies him. The overweight dead kids spend most of their time running on giant human hamster wheels called DREADmills that detect and exploit their deepest fears. The rest they spend eating Hambone Hank's barbecueâ??mystery meat that is delicious, but suspiciously (to Milton, anyway) haunting. Every classroom has a huge TV screen showing happy thin people who taunt Blimpo residents with a perfection they will ne Ingen biblioteksbeskrivelser fundet. |

Milton dies again and finds himself back in Heck trying to rescue his friend Virgil & his sister Marlo. Virgil has been moved to the 3rd Circle: Blimpo where the gluttonous boys & girls reside. Marlo has been made an "Infern" who will be eventually working for "The Big Guy" down there.
Damien has been revived by the group "KOOK", who want to use him as a "bridge" back to the other side.
Milton, along with Anubis & Virgil are working on an escape plan. Virgil himself decides to stay behind & create a revolution in Blimpo, after all, overeating isn't a sin. Marlo has become enchanted and isn't quite herself.
"The Big Guy" upstairs is on a vacation & the Archangels are left to run the show.
This is very cleverly written and there are many many puns, but it was all too much. ( )
