A review by midnightcomets
The Deathbird by Harlan Ellison

challenging dark emotional reflective sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

The Deathbird is just one story, but it's so packed with information, with philosophy and the meaning of life, death, god, earth and love, that it made me feel small when reading it. I will definitely;y think about this for a while.
