The Postmortal

Kind: fantasy

Author: Drew Magary

Issue year: 2012

Description :

An uncovered medicine for the immortality is staying in 2019. But not entirely. Yeah because it is possible to die, e.g. you can die in a car accident or die from lung cancer. By it you aren't growing old. It is one plus against many minuses. Because the eternal life means e.g. that you will never pass on the retirement. And you would have to oneself seriously whom you are holding the married couple, with because words "and I won't leave you for the rest of my life" will be taking really,really long.

My opinion : 

Immortality in this book is shown from the other side than usual. This shows everything in a different light, it tends to think, and this incredibly brilliant humor creates the weirdness of this work. What language is written is very clear. Even though he has over 450 pages, it can be quietly read in one day.

Evaluation: 7 / 10

Music recommended for the reading : Axel Thesleff - Bad Karma

The Monster's Corner

Kind : fantasy, science-fiction

Author : Simon R. Green, Heather Graham, Kevin J. Anderson, Chelsea Cain, David Liss, Kelley  Armstrong, Jonathan Maberry, Sharyn McCrumb

Issue year: 2012

Description :

The book is history about monsters, from the point of view of them alone. You will find stories here conceiving outstanding authors from confessions about frenzy and fear, stopping off at philosophical denominations, finishing on showing affection to the devil. Demons and goblins, dark gods and aliens, mythical and legendary creatures lurking in the darkness and wild beasts in the human skin. Monsters - from Lucifer after Mordreda, from fairy-tale beings kidnapping children for the Bad Witch from West and the creature of Frankenstein. The man notices these beings as terrible, horrifying monsters, but they can see themselves in other light.

My opinion :

The whole of the book is giving the good impression but some stories didn't appeal to me. But very idea in order to write the work from the point of view of monsters, is very interesting.
