Tales of the Civil War cover

"Tales of the Civil War" is the fifth anthology set in The City of the Saved edited by Philip Purser-Hallard for Obverse Books.

Blurb[]

War has come to the City of the Saved. Once immune from harm, the resurrected Citizens of the universe find themselves once again most terribly fragile — and just as in the universe, too many of them now strive to take advantage of the fact.

In this unfamiliar City, the resurrected must revive the long-forgotten skills of their original lives. Knights, courtiers, detectives, killers, nurses, adventurers, spies, the afterlives of all will be irrevocably changed by the Civil War.
