Book Synopsis
When Death Takes A Holiday, You're Coming Along (like it or not).
What's it really like in Dog Heaven? Why do angels cheat at golf? If charity begins at home, where does it end? And what-and why-are barnacle geese? The unbelievable answers to these and other maddening enigmas lie within Death Goes To The Dogs, a collection so recklessly overstuffed with rabid imagination we refuse all liability in the event that it bursts in your hands.
When Aurealis Award-winning fantasist Anna Tambour delves into the secret lives and forbidden loves of advertising mascots, nursery rhyme refugees and the archetypes of Life (herself) and Death (himself), questions nobody ever thought to ask (and only the inestimable Mike Dubisch dared to illustrate), ripen into scathing fables for our post-historical age.
272 pages, over seventy illustrations by Mike Dubisch
Review Quotes
Anna Tambour and Mike Dubisch are a perfect pairing; they share an eye for the delicate, delicious details of the Weird. The seventeen stories collected here-fables of deaths, and Death, animals fabulous and faithful or otherwise-are sly, wise, absurd, awe inspiring, and utterly unforgettable.
Who but Anna Tambour and Mike Dubisch could produce a work of such astonishing originality and delightfully detailed insight on what it means to be human, or otherwise.

World Fantasy Award Winning Author
