The Book of Elsewhere: A Novel BY Keanu Reeves

In an epic collaboration that merges the distinctive talents of Keanu Reeves and China Miéville, inspired by the BRZRKR comic books, comes a novel hailed as “action-packed and profoundly stylish” by the Los Angeles Times.

Unute: Child of Lightning introduces a legendary warrior known only as “B”—a figure of myth and mystery who has witnessed the rise and fall of countless civilizations. This immortal being, who has been called many names, now desires one thing above all: to die.

In present-day America, a secretive black-ops group promises B that they can grant his wish, provided he assists them in a crucial mission. But when a mortal soldier returns from the dead—a feat thought impossible—the situation escalates into a confrontation with an even more enigmatic and formidable force. This force is not only as powerful as B but also harbors its own secretive agenda.

The novel blends Miéville’s inventive world-building and surreal imagination with Reeves’s evocative and poignant storytelling. Together, they craft a narrative that is as innovative as it is captivating. Unute: Child of Lightning offers readers a fresh and thrilling experience, combining high-stakes action with profound philosophical questions about mortality and existence. This collaboration is poised to not only captivate existing fans of both creators but also attract a new audience eager for a groundbreaking genre experience.
