Synopsis
Close your eyes and picture -- just for a moment -- hell. Fire? Demons? Eternal torment?Well, yes -- that's the place, in one very hot nutshell. But that's not all there is to the forbidding world beneath us. For a few millennia now, we mortals have imagined and reimagined hell in countless ways: as a realm of damnation, as an inspiration for highest art, as a setting for the lowest of lowbrow comedy. One might conclude that for all our good intentions to enter para- dise, we can't seem to get enough vivid details of its counterpart, hell.Provocative, colorful, and damned entertaining, "Go to Hell" takes readers on a tour of the underworld that is both darkly comical and seriously informative. From the frozen hell of the Vikings to the sun-drenched Cayman Islands' town of Hell (where tourists line up to have their postcards aptly postmarked), from Dante's circles of hell to "Buffy the Vampire Slayer's" Hellmouth, "Go to Hell" embraces our evolving relationship with the sinner's final destination, revealing how we truly think of ourselves in "this" world.What's down below?Meet HEL, the hideous, half-rotting goddess of the Viking underworld.Beware the Egyptians' AM-MUT, an unsightly mix of lion, crocodile, and hippo parts, and insatiably hungry for wicked souls.Visit JIGOKU, a Buddhist realm of eight fiery hells and eight icy hells: an all-you-can-suffer hot-and-cold buffet.Step into the INFERNO for a tour of Dante's nine circles of the damned..., This wicked pop cultural exploration of the sinner's playground takes readers on a darkly comical tour of mankind's age-old fascination with the underworld.

- o***b (458)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseVery happy with purchase and the service involved. Description was more or less accurate, more pictures of any item in any listing is always a good idea. In nice condition. The seller made a good offer on the item, which in this case was a book. It was posted very soon after the purchase anf packaged nicely. Short time in post from Ventura, California to West Moonah in Tasmania - a little over two weeks. Probably only 21 days to arrive. Would recommend and buy from again. Thank you !!! 100% A+++

The packaging to the book itself was also great. The value of the book is, to me, great to those who love Dungeons and Dragons. The book is exactly as the seller described. I'm looking forward to reading this book and enjoying it.
