FROZEN My Journey Into the World of Cryonics, Deception, and Death

Narrator William Dufris seems so comfortable reading about freezing people's bodies and heads for later reanimation that it takes scant imagination to hear him as the principal author. His energetic and upbeat manner belies this grisly documentary, which exposes an industry that preys on people’s hope that they can return from the dead. Author Larry Johnson, a paramedic with 25 years of experience, joined a cryonics firm, only to discover that the staff performed unrequested euthanasia, dumped their leftovers into storm drains, and warehoused Ted Williams's frozen remains against his prior wishes. What started as a new career became this audiobook, a whistle-blower's exposé of alleged malicious deception. Making light of dying can prove tricky, but Dufris strikes just the right tone to have it all work. J.A.H. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2010]
