BRZRKR Novel Co-Written By Keanu Reeves Is About To Drop

As a long-time gamer and avid comic book reader, I’m beyond excited about Keanu Reeves‘ latest project, “The Book of Elsewhere.” This collaboration with acclaimed author China Miéville is an intriguing development in the actor’s extensive and diverse career.


Keanu Reeves is collaborating with renowned author China Miéville (The City & The City, Perdido Street Station, Embassytown) on a novel based in Reeves’ BRZRKR comic book world. Titled “The Book of Elsewhere,” this will be Reeves’ first novel. With this addition, his impressive resume now encompasses acting, music, motorcycle business ownership, and philanthropy.

If you’re interested to see what these two creative minds have come up with in the 352 pages that make up The Book of Elsewhere, you won’t have long to wait. The book arrives on July 23rd, and pre-orders for the hardcover edition are available here on Amazon now with a 30% discount. You can also grab the Kindle version there if you prefer. The synopsis reads:

“She explained that we required a specific tool. In response, she turned to the gods for assistance. Through the ages, there have been stories – whispers of a warrior who cannot be slain. He has witnessed the rise and fall of countless civilizations. His many titles include Unute and Child of Lightning, even being referred to as Death itself. Currently, he goes by the name “B.” However, B yearns for the ability to die. In the modern era, a covert U.S. military unit has guaranteed him this desire in exchange for his assistance. But when an ordinary soldier is reborn, the inexplicable occurrence hints at a power even more enigmatic than B himself – one that holds an agenda of its own.”

Reeves shares his excitement in a statement: “Working on ‘The Book of Elsewhere’ alongside China Miéville, one of my beloved authors, was an extraordinary experience. He brought a well-defined structure for the story and his unique perspective on the ‘BRZRKR’ universe, which I deeply cherish. I was elated by his creative direction and feel privileged to contribute to this collaborative project.”

I, as a gamer, found myself amazed at times by the most enjoyable gaming experiences coming from using others’ creations. When Keanu extended an invitation for me to join him in his games, I was taken aback, honored, and thrilled all at once. His generosity with the toys he had painstakingly crafted took me by surprise, as did his eagerness to explore new possibilities together and embrace true collaboration. I can only hope that readers will get a taste of the pleasure I derived from playing The Book of Elsewhere – an experience rich with camaraderie and creativity in the realm of gaming.
