by Steve Carlson

When considering Heaven, I never felt that the traditional view of puffy clouds, an old grey haired man on a throne and streets paved with gold quite gelled with the same God that created quantum physics, the atomic structure and our miraculous physical bodies. I set out to find something that did.

The result; HEAVEN, the novel

Phillip dies and goes to Heaven... but that’s just the beginning

Phillip awakens on an island with everything he’s ever wanted, including being alone. His idea of Heaven… for a while. His first lesson is that anything that lasts too long ceases to be pleasurable, even pleasure.

He also learns that Heaven is personal. One size does not fit all… at least, not at first. Nor is Heaven always happy. Phillip experiences highs so great he is afraid his heart will burst, and lows so low he is sure it already has.

But the road leads upward, culminating with it all coming together in the most marvelous of ways. Heaven actually does live up to its publicity.
