This is a world of the early Middle Ages—a world where Celtic myths, legends, and magic rule, where ancient monsters roam.

This is the story of Bellovezes, the son of a chief killed by his own brother. Bellovezes is sent to war—a certain death. Bellovezes dies in battle but returns from the other side. He sets out on a journey, seeking to uncover the secret of his resurrection, but he still doesn’t know that his fate will be filled with betrayals, wonders, and monsters. Even time itself after death is felt differently, and the boundary between the world of the living and the dead has practically vanished.

The gloom and epic scope of the fantasy, the carefully developed historical backdrop, refined style, complexity of composition, and an unexpected plot—all of it is “The Unkillable,” one of the most original works of European science fiction in the last decade.
