About this listen
The perfect Christmas gift for your coworkers or boss!
The office Christmas party is mandatory. And Luther Colgera hates Christmas.
Luther’s success as a salesman has stripped his life of meaning. Alone at the top of his game, he has no family, no friends, and no interest in Christmas. All that exists is his work, his political angst, and his distaste for chit chat.
When he misses the deadline for time-off, and is forced to participate in the mandatory office Christmas party, he’s thrust into a series of interactions that trigger his deep-seated resentment for the holiday. Unable to put politics aside, he must wrestle with his assumptions about those with whom he works and make the most of a holiday he doesn’t even believe in. When a blizzard knocks out the power and Luther is stranded with a colorful and politically dissident group of coworkers, he teeters on sanity’s edge, and encounters the one thing that can crack his blackened heart.
Will he survive?
- Perfect for schmoozing your boss
- Perfect for Dirty Santa or Secret Santa
- Short book and easy to listen to, with lots of laughs
Critic Reviews
“Mandatory goes to show that Nick Goss can write literally anything, and you’ll love it. I adored every single book in his middle grade fantasy series, The Traveler’s League. I marveled through the esoteric Henry Halfmoon, I was horrified in the best way by Unplugging Babel, and I’ve now laughed and cried my way through Mandatory. If Nick Goss’s name is on the book, it’s worth your time.” (J. Reese Bradley, author of Brumbletide)
