Críticas:

"He's done it again, folks, put out a piece of art and work that will leave you speechless and thinking harder than you have in a while. Will have your hair standing on end, chills down your spine while making you laugh hysterically at some parts...A well-written, in-depth, intellectual and bone-chilling piece of work that will go down in history as one of the best books written by a metal singer of all time."
--Front Row Report

"[A] literary masterpiece...Witty and wroth the read."
--Examiner.com

"Taylor's enthusiasm for his topic and sheer wonder is infectious; he makes for a humble, charming host."
--Publishers Weekly

"Taylor is an engaging narrator, skewering organized religion and his own poor choices with equal fervor."
--San Francisco Book Review

"This book is prat autobiographical and part suspense novel...The writing style is first person but even more than that, it's like you are sitting at the bar and [Taylor] is telling you a story. This is a whole scary as hell motion picture captured in the printed word."
--Examiner.com

"Taylor's narrative voice is rich with quick intellect and roaring humor. If one of the main jobs of a writer is to entertain the reader, then Taylor is a literary circus act...The book is a witty and thought-provoking read, and has the intimate feel of a good ghost story told around a campfire--by your most offbeat and hilarious friend."
--PopMatters.com

"At several points throughout the reading of this book the hair on my arms was standing completely straight up."
--MediaMikes.com

"[Taylor's] witty sense of humor and writing style really pulls you in with every word...If you want a fun read about the paranormal and some laugh out loud moments from one of the coolest guys in music pick this one up."
--Sound Crave Magazine

"[Taylor's] follow-up flows with the same easy, conversational cadence of his debut, replete with acres of legitimately funny, self-effacing observations, as well as compelling insights, scientific research and of course, telltale doses of the swagger and bravado...Taylor's affable style is perfectly-suited to spinning yarns...A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Heaven offers readers a thought-provoking and hellaciously-entertaining experience."
--The Weeklings

Reseña del editor:
