Unlike anything else. Boom! Stephen Fry \"A gripping, hugely intelligent and beautifully-realised nightmare. It's clever, brilliant and horrifying.\" Daily Mail \"A pulpy, adrenaline-fueled thriller, but it's also a moody, experimental novel about mortality, the slippery nature of time and what it means to be human.\" New York Times \"Bloody fun.\" Telegraph \"Reeves and Mievilles novel turns a (literally) comic book into a meditation on what it means to be truly alive that's both affecting and enigmatic.\" SFX \"A sprawling blend of hi-octane action sequences and philosophical meditations on life, death and immortality that calls to mind Roger Zelazny's Lord of Light... An absorbing combination of sci-fi, mythology and teleology.\" Irish Times ------------------------------- She said, \"We needed a tool. So I asked the gods. There have always been whispers. Legends. The warrior who cannot be killed. Who's seen a thousand civilizations rise and fall. He has had many names: Unute, Child of Lightning, Death himself. These days, he's known simply as \"B.\" And he wants to be able to die. In the present day, a U.S. black-ops group has promised him they can help with that. And all he needs to do is help them in return. But when an all-too-mortal soldier comes back to life, the impossibility of it all becomes clear. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 566g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 x 162 x 30 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781529150537\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Keanu Reeves,China Mieville","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":46481105092858,"sku":"9781529150537","price":15.71,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1722113422760_book.jpg?v=1722232606","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-book-of-elsewhere-9781529150537","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
