I am as ordinary, commonplace a guy as you can find: middle-sized, middle-class, middle-aged; engineer by training, banker by circumstance; with a nice wife, nice kids, nice house, and nice car. But the damndest things happen to me.
A book of light-hearted short stories, in which Willy Newbury encounters jinns, zombies, easily angered gods and goddesses, ghosts, lucky charms and reincarnation. The title story is perhaps the funniest and definitely my favourite.
