The story of Hamlet is not usually thought of as one meant for laughter. But Matt Haig's able retelling of the tale in The Dead Fathers Club will make you laugh, though it might also evoke a tear. Eleven-year-old Philip Noble is at his father's funeral when who should appear but his father's ghost, who wastes no time in telling Philip that his Uncle Alan, an auto mechanic, tampered with his car, causing the accident that killed him. He warns Philip that Uncle Alan will shortly be tampering with his mother too, because Unctuous Uncle Alan wants the pub that Philip's father owned.
The solution to this problem, according to Philip's dad, is that he must kill Uncle Alan. If he doesn't do it before Dad's next birthday, 11 weeks away, Dad will be consigned to the Terrors for all eternity. Philip agrees, in principle, but killing someone, especially without getting caught, isn't easy. But a promise is a promise, so Philip gives it a whirl, in fact, several whirls. Real life interferes in the persons of two school bullies, truly nasty and perverse thugs, who seem ready to kill Philip because they think it's funny that his father died. Philip also falls in love, and his Ophelia (named Leah) thinks that shoplifting is tons of fun. Poor Philip is in over his head in every way possible. There are many encounters with other Dead Fathers in a great sendup of ghostly dealings, Hamlet-like, on the moors, and several sly references to the play. There is even a character named Dane. The ending is not pure Shakespeare, but it is pure Haig and that is very good indeed. --Valerie Ryan
Book Description
A ghost story with a twist—a suspenseful and poignantly funny update of the Hamlet story
Eleven-year-old Philip Noble has a big problem: His dad, who was killed in a car accident, appears as a bloodstained ghost at his own funeral and introduces Philip to the Dead Fathers Club. The club, whose members were all murdered, gathers outside the Castle and Falcon, the local pub that Philip's family owns and lives above. Philip's father tells him that Uncle Alan killed him and he must avenge his death. When Philip realizes that Uncle Alan has designs on his mom and the family pub, Philip decides that something must be done. But it's a much bigger job than he anticipated, especially when he is caught up by the usual distractions of childhood—a pretty girl, wayward friends, school bullies, and his own self-doubt. The Dead Fathers Club is a riveting, imaginative, and quirky update of Shakespeare's great tragedy that will establish Matt Haig as a young writer of great talent and imagination.

Hamlet by any other name..........2007-09-03
The main idea for this book is inherently an interesting one: take Shakespeare's "Hamlet" and turn it into a modern day tale of a ghost urging his son to take revenge against his murderer. There are so many parallels to the Bard's play that anyone reasonably familiar with the play can immediately decide which characters in the book are like the characters in the play. That's one of the interesting parts of the book, and perhaps the only one, at times. The action follows, to a great extent, the play, and there are some scenes lifted almost directly from Shakespeare. I did enjoy the book, but it kind of left me with an unfulfilled feeling at the end, which is why I gave it 4 stars. Read it, and judge it, for yourself.
BIG DISAPPOINTMENT.......2007-08-18
So i got the book after reading all the good reviews...what a disappointment. The book is painful, one bad thing after another, just unrelenting, it's almost like the author just put all the bad things that could happen to you in childhood into one book and think that's enough to make a sotry. Worst yet, there's no resolution of any kind at the end... so even if you sit through the whole book waiting to see if the ghost is telling the truth, you don't find out anything.
Pure voice in a boldly written tale sparks magic.......2007-07-29
Loved it! Once started, it was one of those books I really looked forward to the time I could spend enjoying it. Haig's way of letting Philip tell his tale is bold and refreshing. I found the writing style intuitive rather than bothersome (and I'm an editor); it was an easy, quick read.
Haig has an incredible knack for resurging in us the bittersweet feelings and perspective of being a preteen--life's general confusion, uncertainty, anxiety, innocence and wonder--even if you didn't have to deal with deaths at that age!
While there were funny parts throughout, the chapter toward the end with the grandmother Nan and Philip was brilliantly hilarious. I would like to read that chapter again and again just for the kicks it gives on its own. Anyone who's had an elder family member in their midst can relate.
Big thanks and kudos to Matt Haig for writing this one--and doing it just the way he did.
Fun Take on a Classic.......2007-06-02
An interesting and enjoyable modern day riff on 'Hamlet', the young tortured protagonist in ' ...Club' feels very reminiscent of the young boy in 'The Curious Incident of the Dog In The Night-Time'. Young Phillip's tale moves at quite a clip with his Father returning from the dead to tell the boy he must avenge his wrongful death at the hands of his brother, the boy's Uncle. The book isn't nearly as maudlin as it sounds, and is in fact quite funny, and part of the fun is seeing how Haig manages to update the story.
Didn't quite work .......2007-05-27
I saw a reference to this book somewhere on the Web, and it sounded intriguing, so I ordered it. It was, at best, ok. The child's voice, particularly the lack of apostrophes and the addition of capitals for emphasis appeared authentic but distracting - as were all the Shakespearian references.
In some ways, I think it would have been a better story if those had all been left out, so we could focus on the kid and his situation rather than continually harking back to the indecisive 30-year-old Dane. As a result, I couldn't engage with the story.
Of course, since I bought the book because it was a recreation of Hamlet, my suggestion might be self-defeating...

Book Description
Two years ago, Father Michael Nolan was sued by the family of a seventeen-year-old girl who had committed suicide years ago after confessing to having an affair with Father Nolan. The lawsuit was thrown out, but all of Michael's secrets came out, resulting in the end of his life as a priest and ruining his relationship with his niece, Kirsten. Michael and Kirsten, a private investigator and the lead character along with her lawyer husband, Dugan, a lawyer, of David J. Walker's acclaimed Wild Onion mystery series, were quite close, especially after Michael helped her out of a big jam when she was in college, and Kirsten is devastated by the revelations about her uncle. She still feels obligated to him, though, after everything they've been through together, and when a list of priests who have been accused of abuse appears in the Chicago newspaper, she is sympathetic. Unlike Dugan, who defended him against the lawsuit but since then would rather have less than nothing to do with him. But Kirsten's sympathy turns to real fear when one of the priests on the list turns up dead, murdered and his body mutilated. Has the list in the newspaper ignited a killer, or is it someone seeking revenge for a more personal reason? Before they can get anywhere on the first murder, another priest turns up dead. In this latest intricately constructed novel by the award-winning author of the Mal Foley mysteries, Kirsten and Dugan try to find a killer amid the rising danger.

strong cat and mouse murder mystery .......2005-03-30
When she was younger Kirsten's uncle Father Michael Dugan helped her through personal problems. Now he has troubles having his name appear on a list of priests who allegedly abused their positions of authority; someone plans to execute those on the list. Kirsten, owner of the Chicago-based private detective firm Wild Onion, Ltd, plans to stop the killer from harming her uncle accused of sex with a seventeen year old minor female.
Her friend lawyer Dugan does not hold Father Michael in the same regard as Kirsten. When she agrees to help her uncle and the other condemned priests, all locked away though the evidence has not yet proven the charges in all cases, Dugan knows he will do likewise. Kirsten develops a short list of probable threats, but when the menace targets Kirsten, she feels she knows the identity of the priesthood killer. Now she must stop him and prove she is right although the FBI wants her off the case and her husband remains oblivious that she is in the eye of the storm.
Readers will enjoy this strong cat and mouse murder mystery because of the antics of Kirsten who though her uncle has crumbled from his exalted spot, will still be there for him because he was there for her when she needed someone, which bewilders Dugan. Although the tertiary characters like the Feds and to a degree the culprit are stereotypes, the lead pair, her spouse, Father Michael, and several other accused priests make a wonderful cast. Fans will enjoy this modern day priestly version of the List of Adrian Messenger.

Review from the Publisher.......2001-03-09
Jesus told His Apostles to raise the dead (Matt. 10:8). This magnificent book covers Saints who raised from the dead persons who drowned, persons with mutilated bodies, persons who had been hanged, whose bodies had already decayed, been reduced to skeletons, or been buried for several years. They include children, unbaptized infants, unborn babies still in their mother's womb who needed to be baptized, persons executed for crimes, persons raised to testify in criminal cases or to testify to some religious truth, and persons who would have been condemned to Hell had they not been called back to earth for another chance. Also included are descriptions of Heaven, Hell and Purgatory given by temporarily dead persons who had been privileged to see those regions. Analyses the authenticity of resurrection miracles according to the teaching of the Church - plus it describes other bodily wonders of the Saints, such as levitation, bilocation, and total abstinence from natural food and drink. Includes a critique of "post clinical death" experiences in the light of Catholic teaching. Contains over 60 pictures which alone are worth the price of the book. 335pp. PB. Imprimatur.

Good collection in a great series.......2006-10-15
Throughout the two decades from 1964 to 1984, Fontana published a remarkable skein of ghost story collections, piloted by R. Aikman and later by R. Chetwynd-Hayes, no mean supernatural authors themselves. Some of the paperbacks in this series, which winds its way up to the "20th Fontana Book of Great Ghost Stories" are now collectors' items and worth over a hundred dollars apiece.
For this fourth book in the series, Robert Aickman selected eleven supernatural tales, including Alexander Pushkin's "The Queen of Spades" which was also made into an opera--an unusual fate for a ghost story!
These are the tales in the 4th Fontana Book of Great Ghost Stories:
"The Accident" by Ann Bridge--Many great ghost stories are set in the Alps and this is one of them. A pair of climbers, brother and sister, come across a set of tracks that begin in an open snowfield, near the place where two other climbers had fallen to their deaths a month earlier. Then the sister begins to receive postcards from one of the dead climbers.
"Not on the Passenger List" by Barry Pain--A young widow takes passage on a ship to England, where she is to remarry. Her late husband appears in her cabin and tries to persuade her to drown herself.
"The Sphinx without a Secret" by Oscar Wilde--Aikman cheated by including this story, which has no ghost. A mysterious young woman is confronted by her fiancé, who breaks off their engagement.
"When I was Dead" by Vincent O'Sullivan--A young man witnesses his own funeral.
"The Queen of Spades" by Alexander Pushkin--An 87-year-old Countess dies before revealing her supposed secret for winning at cards. Her ghost appears to the man who frightened her to death, revealing the cards he needed to play in order to win a fortune. Would you trust the ghost of the woman you frightened to death?
"Pargiton and Harby" by Desmond MacCarthy-- Harby meets his old friend, Pargiton who seems to be making amends for an ill-spent life. Pargiton begs Harby to visit him, because he seems to bring out the best in the reformed evil-doer. Harby comes, but so does something else.
"The Snow" by Hugh Walpole--The two Mrs. Ryders, one of them dead, battle over their meek, inoffensive husband.
"Carlton's Father" by Eric Ambrose--I would classify this story as science fiction, since it involves a time warp, disguised as a room in Carlton's house, where no-one ages.
"A School Story" by M.R. James--Two men reminisce over the ghost stories that were told about their public schools. One of them concerns a master with a homicidal past.
"The Wolves of Cernogratz" by Saki--Wolves howl around the castle when one of the Cernogratz family dies.
"Mad Monkton" by William Wilkie Collins--Generations of the reclusive Monkton family suffered from hereditary insanity. Alfred, last of the Monkton line falls in love with the beautiful young Ada, but before he can propose to her, he must travel to Italy to recover the body of his Uncle Stephen, the black sheep of the Monkton family, who was killed in a duel. Everyone thinks Alfred is crazy for trying to recover the body, but an old family prophecy and the ghost of Uncle Stephen urge him onward.

Customer Reviews:
Just the Best.......2004-05-22
This is the best audio in dramatized formed I have heard. Of course, the themes are religious, but anyone can benefit from them. The quality of the production is incredible. I recommend all of the Father Gilbert 1, 2, 3 (the last one can be ordered through focus on the family [fotf.org]-it's awesome as well) I would suggest you buy ALL OF FOCUS ON THE FAMILY RADIO THEATER (most of them are classic stories). I have! You will not be disappointed.
Old Fashioned Radio Drama.......2003-10-23
My only problem with the Father Gilbert Mysteries is that there aren't more of them. I own this set on CD and think they are wonderful. The stories are involving and the characters solidly done with nice little touches throughout. My personal favorite of the three stories on this CD is Where the Heart Is followed closely by Dead Air. The stories are first rate but not particularly suspenseful or scary for that matter but they are extremely well done. The only exception might be Dead Air which did give me a little shiver when I first heard it and has my eleven year old completely terrorized (in that shivery way kids enjoy) The stories are remarkably clean and appropriate for the entire family (again Dead Air is probably not for children younger than 10) I just wish Focus on the Family would put out more of the Father Gilbert Mysteries!
Faith-based mysteries shine, and falter.......2001-07-17
'Father Gilbert Mysteries' is a three episode collection of newly-produced British radio dramas. The main focus of the series is to provide an entertainment outlet for religious expression. The show is produced by a company called 'Focus on the Family Radio Theatre', whose main goal is to showcase interesting tales with a religious message. The 'Father Gilbert Mysteries' does so. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
I am a huge fan of radio productions (both old and new), and so when I saw this new set of mysteries at the local bookstore, and read the teaser on the back, I just had to give it a whirl. Though it has its faults, it *did* leave me wanting more - surely the sign of a good production?
The genesis of the series is that Father Gilbert was once a detective for New Scotland Yard, but a particularly vile case made him reconsider things, and so he became a priest. He now resides in a cozy little English village, but trouble still seems to have no problem finding him. I will give a brief synopsis of each episode, giving you a better idea of what to expect of the series. But, be quite aware that this is a program steeped in Christian ethics, so keep that in mind. It is handled well for the most part, though it sometimes hinders the storyline.
The first episode is: 'A Soul In Torment'. A young man comes to see Father Gilbert as the priest is moving in to his new vicarage. It comes across as though the man has commited murder (or will do so in the near future). The curious priest calls upon his policeman friend to help unravel the strange situation surrounding the mysterious visitor, and the game is afoot, so to speak. This is the weakest story, as the religious aspect isn't handled well, and causes the mystery to not really be a mystery (if that makes any sense).
Program two is called: 'Where the Heart Is', and is the most solid of the lot. It involves a missing chalice that is supposedly housed on the church property where Father Gilbert resides, and the nefarious people who will do anything to get it. The story is plotted well, and some of the scenes (especially those which take place in a crypt), are pretty suspenseful.
The final show is: 'Dead Air'. It explains a lot about why Father Gilbert left the police force, as the villian from the vile crime which made him resign returns to wreak more havoc. We only hear the villian over the phone, and he calls himself "Legion", after a demon in the Bible. His voice is eerie, and it is in *this* story that the religious overtones really help make the story frightening (in a good way). The ending is especially scary, as Gilbert must finally confront Legion, and we are left wondering *what* the villian really was.
As with most British radio programs, the production is top-notch, with great acting, well-done sound effects, and (mostly good) stories. If you can make it past the mess of 'A Soul In Torment', then you'll see what an intriguing series this really is. Christianity and mysteries are no strangers to one another, and one must admire 'Father Gilbert Mysteries' for striving to blend the two in the most pleasant way possible.
Book Description
The Dead Father is a gargantuan half-dead, half-alive, part mechanical, wise, vain, powerful being who still has hopes for himself--even while he is being dragged by means of a cable toward a mysterious goal. In this extraordinary novel, marked by the imaginative use of language that influenced a generation of fiction writers, Donald Barthelme offered a glimpse into his fictional universe. As Donald Antrim writes in his introduction, "Reading The Dead Father, one has the sense that its author enjoys an almost complete artistic freedom . . . a permission to reshape, misrepresent, or even ignore the world as we find it . . . Laughing along with its author, we escape anxiety and feel alive."
Customer Reviews:
underdeveloped, yet superfluous.......2001-07-19
The Dead Father is a novel full of clever, astute observations on the nature of fatherhood. Here's the BUT: sadly, its potential is never fully realized. The characters are not fully developed, remaining shallow throughout the novel (the lecherous Dead Father is cowed into submission despite his considerable powers; Edmund is a drunk; Emma is interested in men to the exclusion of just about all else; Julie and Thomas and capable organizers, but paw at each other every five minutes.) The pages of dialogue between Emma and Julie (Barthelme doesn't provide surnames; perhaps that would detract from the 2-dimensional personalities that he created.) don't seem to have any purpose other than conveying the women's cattiness. Barthelme would have been better off ommiting the meaningless dialogue and expanding upon the context and the reasons for the trek. The Dead Father is NOT, in fact, God. Barthelme doesn't explain what he is (because clearly, he's not a human either). Nor does he explain what the people mean when they say that he is only partly dead, or why they want to burry him if he's not fully dead, or why they drag him along by a chain when he is capable of walking. Despite The Dead Father's weaknesses, it is one of the most interesting books I've read in some time. Although it is far too entertaining to be didactic, the underlying message is a condemnation of the growing problem of bad fathers. At one point in their journey, the group encounters the Wends. Wends procreate in such a way that they don't really understand the concept of fathers (they inseminate their own mothers and are therefore their own fathers). The Dead Father remarks that "those who are the fathers of themselves miss something. Fathers, to be precise." That same observation also applies to the growing epidemic of fatherless children in America. It is a pity that this book is no longer in print; perhaps we need it more than ever.
His best novel.......2001-02-25
In relation to SNOW WHITE, this work contains more substance and is a greater literary effort than its predecessor. At the open we have 22 people, some Biblical while some are clearly not even representative, literally dragging God, not quite dead, through various roads, countryside, and towns in order to reach the plot in which He will be buried. Of course, it does not matter is He is dead when they reach their destination. The novel is one of Barthelme's more powerful tales and, as always, full of humor. One cannot read this without thinking that the Monty Python crew was somewhat influenced by this work, philosophically as well as from a creative standpoint. The one surprising footnote to this work is that it is a rather easy read, a linear narrative with definitive characters. Yet, as will all of Barthelme, is if never boring for even a page.
Caustic Brilliance.......2000-04-09
I hate experimental fiction. Don DeLillo and his ilk, they bore me; it's just a lot of fake cleverness. But this book, while you can't deny the avantness of its garde, is...well...the first page brings up the question of just what exactly is lodged in the supine, mile-tall Dead Father's teeth. "Mackerel salad. At least we think it is mackerel salad. In the sagas, it is mackerel salad." Wildly fantastic, caustically funny ( the sex scenes will make you fall out of your chair), prosodically innovative ( I believe Barthelme has invented his own verb tense) and yet, easy to follow and, really, with an old-fashioned plot. It is a parable about the overthrow of old tyrannies -- and in spite of all the literary smartaleckitude it is tender and genuinely moving. You have never read anybody like Barthelme, and if you can find this book anywhere (out of PRINT! how DARE they? ) treasure it. Nothing like it has ever been written or will be again. Sixty-eight stars (if they would allow it.)
Fun to read.......2000-03-20
Barthelme's best novel. As with all of his novel's there is not so much a plot as wonderful word play, black, absurdist humor, and a terrific sense of irony. This is the outrageous story of a small group of people toting their dead ruler--The Dead Father--to his burial ground. Both a pathetic and frightening character, The Dead Father only vaguely suspects what is happening to him, continuing to believe that he is being taken somewhere to be restored to life. This is the kind of novel you could get away with writing in the mid-20th century, a time of great experimentataion in literature. Unfortunately, those days appear to be over.

A Great Beach Read.......2007-03-03
this was the first novel of this author's that I had read. Didn't involve much brain power but the characters kept me interested and since I've read more of her novels. Anyone can figure out the ending but at least the getting there is fun.
NICE STORY, GREAT CHARACTERS AND...........2005-10-10
LOTS OF EMOTIONAL ANGST. LOVED 'CHANCE', SO GLAD HE FOUND HAPPINESS BUT I DON'T SEE THIS AS A KEEPER.
Excellent Romance & Mystery.......2004-02-12
I have read three of Sharon Sala's books. Chance McCall is by far the best book of this type that I have ever read. The characters are so real and each one has their own individual personality. I never wanted to put it down until I found out the big mystery in this book. This is a must read for every woman who reads mysteries and romance.
I have NEVER cried over a book..........2003-09-09
I have never cried about a book, although I have read many heart wrenching tales, but this one brought tears to my eyes. Jenny loves Chance so much that, when he leaves without an explaination to confront his past hoping to regain his memory, she goes a little crazy. Chance is her rock and has been since they met when she was 11 years old. Through out her childhood and into adulthood her love for Chance grew into something beautiful to observe. When Chance leaves, Jenny is devastated.
I have read many of Ms. Sala's books, and the only one on par with "Chance McCall" is the book "Jackson Rule" - which I highly recomend. In any case, if you are a fan of Ms. Sala you will not be disappointed by "Chance McCall".
It hooked me - and made me want to read more of her books.......1997-11-25
This book was recommended to me. I'd never read any of Sharon Sala's books before this one. I found it an absorbing and satisfying read. I was home sick and became so involved in the story the time passed quickly. I enjoyed this one so much I've been on the look out for other books by this author ever since! Keep them coming.

Hair-raising and hilarious!.......2000-09-27
Treasure hunting and mysteries in U-Bet, Montana, of all places. And can a sophisticated NY City editor and a rustic rodeo cowboy find happiness together? If so, where? A great sequel to The Lost Manuscript of Martin Taylor Harrison. Hope there's more in this series.
More action, more romance ... and perfume.......1998-08-26
I think Stephen Bly is a great author. Unfortunately these books aren't available in my language yet, so I have to keep reading him in English. Comparing to anyone else? Zane Grey - but from another viewpoint. Being the second book in the "Austin-Stoner FILES" this book doesn't let you down, even though sequels tend to do just that. Both plot and story is good, and the conclusion is spiritually edifying. My advice to those that bought it: Keep on reading it: You'll enjoy it. And to those who hasn't: Buy it! You won't be disappointed!
Kept me laughing.......1998-07-11
This book combined unique characters with a great story line to create a 5 star book. I'm an avid reader of christian fiction and few books have kept me as entertained as this one. I couldn't wait to find out what happened between Lynda and Brady after I read "The Lost Manuscript of Martin Taylor Harrison" and "The Final Chapter" didn't let me down. The characters are so hilarious and the banter between Brady and Lynda had me anxious to see if they would eventually end up together. I definitely recommend this to anyone who needs a laugh.
What a wonderful series!!.......1998-03-22
Putting together a cowboy and a NYC Editor is so funny! I love the characters and the action keeps you on the edge of your seat! I think the dog is a plus too!!! Read all of them!
