＊  本书获得2013年Sir Vogel Award最佳青少年故事
＊  这是一本爆笑的科幻哲学小说，绝对没有其他类似的故事！
 
这是一本设于纽西兰的幽默科幻青少年小说。
 
我们死了以后灵魂会去哪里？这大概是人类最常问的第三个问题（第一以及第二是：这可以吃吗？以及，你好，请问你想跟我交配吗？）我知道死了以后会发生什么。相信我。我也不想。但是我知道。
 
会有一个灯塔，它帮我们的灵魂照亮一条细细长长的路，直到我们再投胎的这个终点。很可惜，我已经去世的祖父以及一位西藏僧侣出现在我厨房里，告诉我这灯塔坏掉了。这个世界需要拯救，而只有我可以出面。
 
我是谁？George Larson，18岁。对，就是我要拯救世界。
