Please carefully read all the information about this book below before you sign up for an ARC.

Dining on Delirium is written with an excessively British tone (and in British English with spellings and punctuation in British style) that some readers based in other countries may find confusing or hard to understand. The style of writing might be considered as a flowery/purple prose.

When Blanche enters the afterlife on the tail of a narcotic dream, she is met by Death, who offers Blanche true bliss in exchange for undertaking an uncertain mission on Death’s behalf.

However, Blanche will soon realise that nothing is as it appears to be and that survival in the afterlife is far tougher than she could have imagined. She must use everything she has learnt in both life and death to prevail, along the way gaining all the secrets of both realms in a blaze of love, lust, and violence.

In this surreal, mind-bending, two-part tale comes a witty and eccentric story of euphoria and delirium drenched in madness, a testament to enduring love, and ultimately the pursuit of hope.
