`The book retains a lively and highly readable tone. Bremmer is an excellent storyletter, with an eye for amusing and interesting details. The topics that he chooses to discuss on his tour of the soul and afterlife are central and well-worth attention. Students and scholars of ancient religion, philosophy, and early Christianity will certainly want to read it, and more general readers will no doubt enjoy it greatly as well. - Peter Aronoff
