Milton’s Garden: Humanity is toast…

by Brian M. Rice

Milton Kippersky just wants an easy life, but the universe has other ideas. A temporal rift in his garden unleashes dark forces, with only Milton standing between humanity and the end of life on Earth as we know it. Armed with nothing but a spatula, a sense of hope and an insatiable desire for toasted goods, Milton and an unlikely band of associates set off on the journey of lifetime, in search of answers, solutions and the slightest sense that they might actually know what they’re doing.

Will Milton rise to the challenge and discover his true purpose in life? Will humanity be saved? Will he ever get his hands on the perfect slice of toast? The answers are to be found in the garden.

A door appears in Milton's garden and leads to a battle of good and evil that determines the fate of humanity. This was a strange one. I don't know what I expected from this, but there was a lot going on, from fallen angels to superior traffic wardens, from the original garden to the Under Realm. The plot was okay, but the writing/humor wasn't really for me. There was nothing wrong with it, just not my style. 2.5 stars rounded to 2.
