Three star review, originally posted here on January 31st, 2025. What an absolutely spectacular premise, with such disappointing execution. I’m not going to say anything here that isn’t already mentioned in other reviews. The general idea here is great, and after the 1st chapter, I thought this might just be a wonderful read. I was … More Goodreads Review: The Brief History of the Dead by Kevin Brockmeier
