I REMEMBER WATERCOLOR nights with my dad. I can still conjure up his voice, creaky like an anise candy wrapper. Sometimes he'd shade my world with his knowledge of birds, bats, and insects, or recite the lyrics of ballads like, "To Know Know Know Him, is to Love Love Love Him." Now pushing seven years old, I would often pass the time sloshing around swamps in my yellow plastic boots searching for tadpoles and leopard frogs. When the wind howled he would say, "See little November, there is music everywhere."

Come along on a magical and mystical coming-of-age story set in the post-punk era of 1984, with November reliving the fateful night of the Celtic Hazel Moon Festival.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
