Omschrijving

Death is not always solemn. Sometimes, he is tired, sardonic-and occasionally caught up in events far stranger than he would like.

In Raven (and other stories), Mark Ellott returns with a striking collection of short fiction where the boundaries between life and death, past and present, and reality and myth blur in unexpected ways.

Across these stories, familiar figures reappear in new and often surprising roles. Death himself walks among the living with weary patience and a dry wit, accompanied by his ever-watchful raven, while War brings chaos with a sharp edge and a sharper tongue. Together, they move through worlds both ancient and modern-sometimes guiding events, sometimes merely observing the consequences of human folly.

From a remote Martian outpost where something has gone terribly wrong, to ghost-haunted battlefields, deserted towns steeped in memory, and strange encounters in the vast American desert, these stories span genres with ease. Science fiction, historical fiction, the supernatural, and dark comedy intertwine to create a collection that is as entertaining as it is thought-provoking.

By turns unsettling, poignant, and darkly humorous, Raven explores fate, consequence, and the unseen forces that shape our lives-reminding us that even Death has his off days, and that the line between the ordinary and the extraordinary is often thinner than we think.
