#171 Avatar of war: The Book of Elsewhere (2024) by Keanu Reeves and China Miéville
Update: 2025-09-18
Description
An unusual detour into contemporary SF, this episode is a look at the thoroughly strange The Book of Elsewhere (2024), a collaboration between Hollywood icon Keanu Reeves and British flag-bearer for the New Weird, China Miéville. The novel is a spinoff from Reeves' comic book series BRSRKR, about an immortal warrior with 80,000 years of bloodshed behind him.
For his part, Miéville called the novel "a story of ancient powers, modern war, and one person’s quest to find mortality and purpose."
