"For fans of Neil Gaiman, Gregory Maguire, and the like, this is
essential." --Library Journal, starred review
"Romantic and blood-streaked, and infused with magic so real you
can feel it on your fingertips--Deathless is beautiful." --Cory
Doctorow, bestselling author of Little Brother "Stories, unlike
people, don't stay dead forever, or not always. They can live
again--but only under very special circumstances. They must be
revived by the miraculous touch of a very rare class of being, a
kind of multi-classed genius/scholar/saint, who can restore them to
life. Catherynne Valente is such a being." --Lev Grossman,
bestselling author of The Magicians, on Ventriloquism
