Two hippies die. They then learn more about their friends, and are involved with a bio-engineering lumber company, dryads, elfs, wolves, and homeless teenage super-hackers. "Afterlife factoid #2: Dead hippies are invisible." Not particularly profound, but fun to read. Oh yeah, Richard Grant is the author. http://www.othergods.org/BOOK REV and Etc/Texandmolly.html is a much better review than I can write. (Google is neat.)
