 “That pain you feel? That's love.”
― olivie blake, Masters of Death

Slice of life but add creatures, immortals, and a ghost. The writing is a mix of prose with eloquent poetry that borders on flight of fancy, a flair of romance and of course Blake's signature dash of philosophy with comedic undertones. The variety of characters and humor captivated my attention. We have: a softhearted vampire cat, a testy ghost, a guardian angel and reaper, a demigod, a pair of archangels, demons, Death and a moral. Along their journey through an immortals game, we begin to see a truth; that our mortal dilemmas is the vice of immortals.
