“5.0 out of 5 stars A fun, whimsical ride
I enjoyed this little story very much. Written in the style of a fable or the like, the narration had an amusing and sometimes touching flavour. A great way to put a smile on your face on the way to work. Five stars for the fun idea.

Dead but can't move on? There's a place for that.
Somewhere in the Arizona desert, hidden between dimensions, stands Uncle Billy's Chicken Hut and Salvation Emporium—a surreal waystation where troubled souls resolve their unfinished business before moving on to whatever comes next.
The proprietor is unforgettable: a 6'6" Texan with a red beard like a psychedelic St. Nick, mismatched eyes, and centuries of experience helping the dead. His adversary? A sarcastic red cat who argues against nearly every soul who walks through the door.
From a seventy-year-old bookie whose dying wish was simply to taste oysters, to a reformed drunk seeking redemption, to a mobster facing cosmic justice—each visitor arrives with baggage only Uncle Billy can unpack. And the methods of judgement? Mystical books, enchanted canvases, and even cakes that reveal your fate.
Part 50s diner, part carnival funhouse, entirely surreal—this is absurdist comedy fantasy with genuine heart. For fans of Terry Pratchett's wit and Neil Gaiman's whimsy.
What's really holding you back from your eternal reward?
