In the bowels of an unassuming, ever-moving funerary parlor, a mortician known as the Operator hides a fearsome machine called the Godwin, rumored to have the ability to resurrect the dead. It runs, like a soul does, on logos: on words. And in exchange for those words—for a client’s life story—the corpse of their choosing might yet walk again. Careful, though. Words bear weight, so one must choose them wisely. Author M. Regan delivers a harrowing and beautiful glimpse into a world filled with desire, darkness, love, and loss.
"There are many emotions in play here: grief, rage, loss, forgiveness, love and fear... 21 Grams is not going to leave my heart for a long time." -Sarah Duck-Mayr
"This is a book that will make you think. It will provide a creep factor that builds instead of making you jump... It is a read that will stick with you and make you wonder what you would be willing to do for a lost loved one, or to one that is not so loved." -Daniel Yocom of Guild Master Gaming
"21 Grams by M. Regan blew my mind, and not just because of the splendid metaphysical elements... 21 Grams was so unique that I can't think of any books like it. Suffice it to say that if you’re a fan of philosophical, gothic literature that provides great LGBTQ+ representation, I strongly suggest you check out 21 Grams by M. Regan." -Kayla C. Reviews
