Two years ago, on the same day but miles apart, Finn Darby lost two of the most important people in his life: his wife Lorena, struck by lightning on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, and his abusive, alcoholic grandfather, Tom Darby, creator of the long-running newspaper comic strip Toy Shop. Against his grandfather’s dying wish, Finn has resurrected Toy Shop, adding...more

On a single day at the beginning of Will McIntosh's Hitchers (Night Shade Books), cartoonist Finn Darby loses both his wife Lorena and his elderly grandfather, who 40 years earlier created the successful comic strip Toy Shop. The grandfather previously made clear his refusal to allow Finn to take over the strip after his own death, but as it turns out, Finn easily convinces his grandmother that continuing the strip will benefit them both.

The grandfather previously made clear his refusal to allow Finn to take over the strip after his own death, but as it turns out, Finn easily convinces his grandmother that continuing the strip will benefit them both. Finn keeps "Top Shop" running, introduces new characters, and signs licensing deals, and these changes bring popularity, fame and wealth.

When a major terrorist attack strikes Finn's home city of Atlanta, the half-million sudden deaths bring about the novel's premise: Spirits of the recent dead take over the bodies of the living. These "hitchers" appear first through verbalization, then gradually control the bodies of their living hosts. The novel's emotional impact is strongly front-loaded. Events pile up fast in the first few chapters. Along with a few characters entangled with him, Finn seeks to understand what's happening, then manage the interference of these "hitchers" as the influence they exert over the living increases. Finn partners with Mick Mercury, washed-up 80s rock star, and waitress Summer Locker, who Finn and his wife encountered just before Lorena died.

McIntosh presses the story relentlessly forward, in a straightforward, unadorned style, with brief scenes and chapters. Characters move briskly from place to place, event to event. The overall tone remains breezy, despite a brief serious turn in the early going as characters adjust to the loss of loved ones, and greater Atlanta copes with mass death. These scenes are affecting, and come across as "real" in a human way. McIntosh conveys Finn's conflict between a selfish desire to control "Toy Shop" and an impulse to respect his grandfather's wishes.

As events progress, the story unfolds at double-speed so that the last half of the book seems compressed. The reader glides along the surface at an increasingly superficial level. Significant story milestones fly past, and the plot jumps forward, more synopsis than narrative. A long-developed romantic triangle is resolved in just a sentence or two. A character's mindset suddenly jumps from problem-solving to giving up all hope, without much in the way of transition. These plot turns feel less true, less emotionally justified than what came before.

Just when the plot seems to be on a rail headed toward inevitability, McIntosh pulls out some rewarding surprises and nicely resolves the ending. Hitchers offers an interesting setup and likable characters whose conflicts and drives compel the reader. Despite pacing issues in the second half, it's an enjoyable and entertaining read. (less)

i bought this one because i really enjoyed Soft Apocalypse--it was an unusual take on the end of the world. this book concerns life after death--or life after death after life.

after a terrorist attack takes out a big chunk of Atlantans, people find themselves suddenly possessed by the spirits of the dead. it's a creepy notion, and as in Soft Apocalypse, McIntosh takes his quite everyday normal non-heroic protagonist through the weirdness realistically.

In Hitchers, home-grown whackos release anthrax in Atlanta, resulting in the direct death of hundreds of thousands and the incidental drowning death of Finn Darby, a cartoonist who has taken over his dead grandfather’s newspaper comic strip and who two years earlier suffered the death of his wife, killed in a lightning strike before his eyes. Luckily Darby is resuscitated after drowning, but he’s accidentally picked up his grandfather’s vengeful spirit and is slowly being possessed by the old man. Grandpa resents the success the newly invigorated comic strip has seen since his grandson took over, against the old man’s dying wishes.

The story starts as a steady drip, drip of eerie until the spigot opens wide into a full-on nightmare when throughout the stricken city others begin speaking in a dead person’s voice. But Darby’s “case” is far more advanced, probably because of his ten minutes in the land of dead while his rescuers tried to bring him back to life. He’s already experienced the progression from the spooky frog-like voice of the dead to the claiming of his body.

Fortunately the dead can at first only claim the living for a short time and Darby is contacted by others who are also unwilling hosts of the dead, including an aging rock star and a waitress who has a connection with Darby from the time of his wife’s death.

What’s really enjoyable about Hitchers is the nice juxtaposition of something so sadly believable — a terrorist attack — and the utterly fantastic — the dead possessing the living. The main characters suffering from their afflictions are also admirable for their logical, almost scientific approach in investigating the parameters of their nightmare, coupled with a lot of eye rolling metaphysics. And it’s all based in the present world of the first black president, Homeland Security, religious extremists who see the dead as Satan’s Army and lots of references to National Public Radio. It’s also very believable that the dead should want to experience life again, from going to nightclubs to posting on facebook.

It’s also nice to see Darby go from a man, almost friendless after the death of his wife and actually left friendless after the anthrax deaths, to a man who has found fast friends and who has conquered some of the demons that have haunted him his whole life.

I also really appreciated the conclusion, which seems very logical given the parameters of the world McIntosh has created. I feared the book would go the way of a British SF television series — in other words slit your wrists bleak, but I think you’ll appreciate the groundwork the author had laid to support the conclusion.(less)

Recommended to Alan by: A good plot synopsis

So the good news is that Atlanta's population has been more than decimated—a full ninth of the city's inhabitants are reported to have succumbed to anthrax released by a small terrorist cell. That's the good news. The bad news is that this unprecedented number of deaths seems to have opened a door of sorts, through which the dead are coming back to possess the living.

That's the good news. The bad news is that this unprecedented number of deaths seems to have opened a door of sorts, through which the dead are coming back to possess the living.

That's the dust-jacket synopsis for Will McIntosh's genre-defying novel Hitchers. It's short; I breezed through this one in a single day. But that doesn't mean there's no depth here. McIntosh is (it says here) a psychology professor, and while McIntosh's flat, realistic first-person style contrasts well here with the horror-movie premise, and makes for a quick and easy read, what this book spends most of its time on are its characters' relationships—primarily the dialogue between cartoonist Finn Darby and his grandfather Tom, creator of the long-running comic strip "Toy Shop."

Tom Darby's strip was supposed to die with him; Finn brought it back, as one of those so-called "zombie strips" that attract so much (often justified) criticism for taking up space on comics pages. But Finn has made a success of his takeover, introducing new characters and revamping the setting, to growing fan approval. There are examples of Finn's strips scattered throughout Hitchers—one more way in which this book partakes of an amalgam of genres; it's not reliant enough on the images to be a "graphic novel" as such, but it definitely leans in that direction. I liked the strips, myself, and wanted more of them.

But Tom Darby doesn't. And now that he's back, he's making his opinions known...

I kind of hope this book never gets the Hollywood treatment; much of its nuance would be lost, or drowned out by special effects. As I said above, this book has surprising depth; the universe may be in the habit of "dropping giant shit-bombs" on Finn Darby (and the rest of his near and dear), but it's in the service of a story that digs down into the roots of our feelings for family. I picked this one up on a whim, and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised.(less)

Liked:
* The premise is very unique and very well-executed. Everything is explained in a natural, non-infodumpy (yes, that's a word) way.
* There is a major twist at the end that I was not expecting. The plot is engaging and unexpected.
* The best of genre fiction uses something strange and new to hold a magnifying lens to our humanity. This book certainly does that. It put me through a whole range of emotions, and I am honestly sitting here and thinking of what I would do in the same situation.

He hopes he isn't falling ill but become more concerned when he starts blurting out sentences at random. What's even stranger is that he's saying things that sound like his Grandpa, who died the same day as his wife, two years' earlier. Is this a side-effect of the anthrax? Is he going crazy? Or could it just possibly be his Grandpa communicating from beyond the grave? And if so, does that mean he can find his wife?

Hitchers and I got off on the wrong foot. In this world of ebooks, it's even more important to make an impact with the first chapter, as many people will just download a free sample before deciding whether to part with their hard earned cash. In this instance, I would have walked away. Finn's wife is introduced, a confrontational woman, yet she falls to pieces in the face of a storm and some long grass that she thinks might contain snakes. She is abruptly killed off and to be fair, this isn't something I was disappointed with. Whilst not a fully formed character, I didn't like her much. The main problem was they were paddling down river in a metal canoe when the storm started. Thinking metal containers are pretty safe things to be in around lightning, I asked around for other opinions and the general consensus is that the canoe would have acted as a Faraday cage. Yet still, she died from a lightning strike that hit ground on the opposite side of the river.

So maybe that put me in a mood to enjoy the book less. Whilst the idea was good, I found it all a bit bland. Two years later, Finn goes on a date and reveals he isn't over the death of his wife however as a first person narrator, the grief should have been felt through his words. The only reason I knew he was grieving was because the reader is told outright. Finn has other friends die and he just seems to get on with it.

It's a quick read although some scenes are a bit too rushed and are left unconnected to the following plot. If someone tries to kill you, wouldn't it stay with you a few days? The anthrax attack also appeared to be over in record time, with only a lack of Snickers bars in the shops to show for it. Other times Finn would just come to a conclusion that happened to be right but without much leading up to it. Altogether it read like a first draft instead of a novel in the final stages of publication.

McIntosh's vision of the afterlife shows potential but I think it is forsaken for the conflict between Finn and his Grandpa. Grandpa feels a little too much like a caricature of a cantankerous old drunk and there is no leeway for any kind of compassion towards him. It's all very black and white.

Will McIntosh is not a new writer however his critical acclaim has mostly been for shorter works of fiction. Hitchers sort of has a feeling of small episodes strung together into a novel. There are some parts that gave me pause for thought and I would certainly be tempted to read some of his short stories.(less)

In general I really liked this book - really inventive and new premise, and a well-executed and enjoyable read.

There's something about the way he depicts casual murder by armed thugs that's really haunting, which doesn't sound like I'm saying something nice but I do mean it that way.

Hitchers is only McIntosh's second novel, but he's written and published a ton of stories both in magazines and anthologies. He also won a Hugo award for his story "Bridesicle" — pretty awesome, right? I recommend popping by his website where you can get a taste for his writing with an excerpt from his first novel, Soft Apocalypse, which he's posted for your reading pleasure.
And now, onto Hitchers. The book takes place in present day Atlanta after a terrorist attack that claimed over half a million lives. Now, you're probably thinking, what could be worse than that? Well, I'll tell you ...

What if when that many people die in one place at one time a rift opens and, as the souls of the dying are moving from one realm to another, some long dead folks are able to get back to the world of the living? Impossible? Tell that to Finn Darby, our reluctant hero. After some uncontrollable outbursts, Finn begins to suspect that he's sharing his body with his dead and very angry grandfather. Partnered with an aging rock star and a waitress, Finn has to figure out how to get rid of the hitchers before they take over completely.
Hitchers is a great story, with a really interesting premise. As I was reading, I became very emotionally attached to the characters. I was desperate to find out if they would win the battle with their respective hitchers, and then I found myself wondering for whom I was really rooting.

You see, the novel that McIntosh has crafted isn't as simple as good vs evil. I mean, sure, some of the hitchers were jerks. They were terrible people in life, and when they came back they were no more endearing than before they died. But others were just people. People who died and when the opportunity arose, they decided that they wanted another shot at living. Can you really blame them for seizing the opportunity when it presented itself?

If you're a fan of speculative fiction, I definitely recommend giving Hitchers a read. I enjoyed it so much that his previous novel, Soft Apocalypse, is definitely going to be added to my ever growing to read list.

A particularly fun book to read- it reads quickly. When I picked up the book, I thought the sheer amount of plot lines that McIntosh was trying to squeeze into the book to make the story work sounded rushed. It does seem a bit rushed in some places- the main character's relationship with his wife is not really fleshed out enough in the beginning to make the rest of the plot stressful to the reader.

Reading this was like sitting down to dessert, delightful in the originality it brings to what might be called the undead genre (that is, a genre about undead people and not a genre, like teenage vampire stories, that refuses to go away). Hitchers shows a deft touch with relationships, situational comedy, and plotting. And there were a couple of Stephen King-like raise-the-hair-on- your-neck moments.
