Why read it?

1 author picked Last Days of an Immortal as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Last Days of an Immortal is a stylish, picaresque foray into a lavish post-scarcity future where cloning has made death optional and bodies can be changed as easily as a shirt. The black and white art has a graphic 1960s flair enlivened with wonderful textural details. Poignant, beautiful, and totally weird with some excellent alien cultures. One of my all-time favorite graphic novels.

From Sophie's list on for speculative fiction lovers.
