NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An “action-packed [and] profoundly stylish” ( Los Angeles Times )
epic from Keanu Reeves and China Miéville unlike anything these two genre-bending pioneers
have created before inspired by the world of the BRZRKR comic books “[ The Book of
Elsewhere is] 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.”— The New York
Times “An exceptionally innovative collaboration from two remarkable minds.”—William Gibson
author of Neuromancer 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 impossible event
ultimately points toward a force even more mysterious than B himself. One at least as strong.
And one with a plan all its own. In a collaboration that combines Miéville’s singular style
and creativity with Reeves’s haunting and soul-stirring narrative these two inimitable artists
have created something utterly unique sure to delight existing fans and to create scores of
new ones.
