The boy author of the best-selling book The boy who came back from heaven admitted he didn’t actually go to heaven. So the publisher won’t sell the book anymore.
In a dark day for non-fiction, the boy who wrote The boy who came back from heaven admitted Tuesday he didn't actually go to heaven, prompting his publisher to take the best-seller out of print.

The book, published in 2010, purported to describe what happened when the aptly-named Alex Malarkey went into a two-month long coma following a car crash that left him mostly paralyzed.

Malarkey, who was six at the time of the accident, claimed that he spent those two months in heaven, chilling with angels, listening to music, and hanging out with Jesus, according to the book's Amazon description.

With a little help from his father, Christian therapist Kevin Malarkey, Alex turned his experiences into a detailed memoir, which promptly landed on the New York Times non-fiction best-selling list.
