Synopsis
The Old Man and Mr Smith, no less than God and Satan in disguise, embark upon a fact-finding mission to Earth. But these two old sparring partners - God increasingly decrepit and Satan merely bad-tempered - have rather fallen out of touch with developments in the modern world. Finding themselves in a great deal of trouble as they are arrested, escape and spend their visit almost entirely on the run from FBI and Interpol, their escapades point up both the comedy and tragedy of modern life.

From AudioFile
God's visit to Earth in the company of Satan presents a unique opportunity for John Sessions's vocal dexterity. His vocal portrayal of these eternal enemies in this amusing and penetrating fable is magnificent. Sessions renders the voice of God as enormous and earthshaking, the voice of Satan as sneering and reptilian. The voice used for other characters is always appropriate. These vocal gymnastics require the very high fidelity recording that is a hallmark of Chivers Audio Books. J.D.N. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
