Description
The Border Keeper by Kerstin Hall is a beautifully imagined and eerie tale that weaves together love, loss, and loyalty in a richly realised underworld. In this twisty example of the new weird genre, Vasethe's quest for a favor from a mysterious woman leads him into the nine hundred and ninety-nine realms of Mkalis, where gods and demons wage endless war.
Hall's world-building is both Byzantine and breathtaking, with impossible oceans, hidden fortresses, and a complex bureaucracy that will keep you turning pages. But beneath its epic scope, this novel also explores the profound terror and power of motherhood, and the devastating consequences of secrets revealed.
A finalist for the 2020 Nommo Award, The Border Keeper has been praised for its vivid imagination, wry humour, and genuine emotional depth. If you're looking for a thought-provoking and unsettling read, this is a great choice.
