As a long-time gamer and avid fan of both movies and literature, I’m beyond excited about Keanu Reeves‘ upcoming novel, The Book of Elsewhere. This man is not only an accomplished actor but also someone with a unique sense of what makes a good story. His collaboration with China Miéville, an award-winning author known for his intricate and imaginative worlds, has me hooked.
Keanu Reeves is an actor known for his film roles and as Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077. He’s also a motorcycle enthusiast and soon-to-be-published author. Together with China Miéville, a decorated speculative fiction writer, he has penned a book titled “The Book of Elsewhere.” Set for release on July 23 at $21, this literary work draws inspiration from the BRZRKR comic series created by Reeves in collaboration with Matt Kindt and Ron Garney.
BRZRKR follows the account of an immortal warrior with a desire to die, who goes by the code name B while collaborating with a US black-ops team. In return for their aid in completing perilous tasks, B utilizes his abilities to assist the group on hazardous missions. Picture a blend of Deadpool and centuries of war wearying him down, and you’ll have a clear understanding of BRZRKR’s narrative.
“Throughout history, tales have circulated. Myths. The invincible warrior who has witnessed the rise and fall of numerous civilizations. He goes by various names: Unute, Son of Lightning, even Death itself. Nowadays, he’s referred to as ‘B.’ Yet, despite his immortal existence, B yearns for death. However, when an ordinary soldier miraculously comes back to life, this extraordinary occurrence hints at a force more enigmatic than B himself. A force equally powerful and with its own agenda.”
