Deathless (novel)
''Deathless'' is a fantasy novel by Catherynne M. Valente, combining the Russian fairy tale the Death of Koschei the Deathless with the events and aftermath of the Russian Revolution. The novel follows the life of Marya Morevna as she transforms from a young child witnessing the revolution to her newfound position as bride after her marriage with Koschei, Tsar of Life. The book is divided into six parts and is told primarily through the third person perspective of Marya Morevna, however, it does feature other characters such as Ivan Tsarevich.
==Reception==
The AV Club complimented Valente's prose, comparing it favorably to her previous works — in particular, her 2009 novel ''Palimpsest'' — and said that thematically, ''Deathless'' "does for Russia what Susanna Clarke's ''Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell'' does for England".〔(Catherynne M. Valente: ''Deathless'' ), by Jason Heller, at the ''AV Club''; published April 7, 2011; retrieved November 15, 2014〕
''Strange Horizons'' similarly praised Valente's use of language, but said that the novel as a whole was "problematic", "ambivalent", and "strangely colorless", that "at a macro-level", the novel is "something of a mess," and that ultimately, what the novel "has in loveliness, it lacks in direction."〔(''Deathless'' by Catherynne M. Valente ), reviewed by Erin Horáková; at ''Strange Horizons''; published 25 July 2011; retrieved 15 November 2014〕
