WHEN MILTON AND Marlo Fauster die in a marshmallow bear explosion, they get sent straight to Heck, an otherworldly reform school. Milton can understand why his kleptomaniac sister is here, but Milton is--or was--a model citizen. Has a mistake been made? Not according to Bea "Elsa" Bubb, the Principal of Darkness. She doesn't make mistakes. She personally sees to it that Heck--whether it be home-ec class with Lizzie Borden, ethics with Richard Nixon, or gym with Blackbeard the Pirate--is especially, well, heckish for the Fausters. Will Milton and Marlo find a way to escape? Or are they stuck here for all eternity, or until they turn 18, whichever comes first?From the Hardcover edition.

Glad I went to Heck!
This book, thanks to Bronson Pinchot's skillful narration, and to the sly cultural references sprinkled throughout, was one of the best audiobook listens I've ever experienced. I commute to see my clients, and this book was more than welcome company at work. Cannot wait to listen to its sequel!
This book is extremely clever. I got a lot of good giggles out of the certain references, and I'm sorry, but poop is always funny. This book pushes the limits just enough, but it's also educational. I love the character growth, and the fact that the kids are learning things about themselves during this crazy journey. I was happy with the ending, and I am eager for the next installment! :)
