The Book of Elsewhere
A Novel
Keanu Reeves and China Miéville's novel of an 80,000-year-old immortal warrior who longs to die, pulp action lifted into meditative literary fantasy.
Expanded from the BRZRKR comics that Keanu Reeves co-created, this novel, written with the acclaimed China Miéville, follows an immortal warrior called Unute who has lived and killed for eighty thousand years and wants, above all, to be able to die. As scientists study his impossible body, the book braids brutal action with genuine philosophical weight, asking what a life without end does to the soul. Miéville’s literary ambition lifts a pulp premise into strange, meditative fantasy.
