Overview

Mortal is a science fiction fantasy novel by Ted Dekker and Tosca Lee, published in February 2013. It is the second book in a trilogy. Plot Nine years have passed since hero Rom Sebastian first stumbled upon a secret vial of blood capable of bringing himself back to life. He has survived impossible odds, and has created a secret faction of followers who have also taken the blood, the first Mortals in a dead world. The Order has built an elite army in which to hunt down and crush the living. Division and betrayal pose a threat to the Mortals from within. Jonathan is the only one who has the true life blood flowing through him, and he can save all humanity. Jonathan is waiting to step up to the throne on his 18th birthday. Saric develops the Dark Bloods, and revives his sister Feyn. She will reign and treat her brother as her Maker. When Jonathan tries to heal a Dark Blood, it begins to deteriorate his purity. The only hope for surviving is on the edge of collapse, and no one is certain of the path to survival.

Notable quotes

“Again, bhikkhus, as though he were to see a corpse thrown aside in a charnel ground, one, two, or three days dead, bloated, livid, and oozing matter, a bhikkhu compares this same body with it thus: 'This body too is of the same nature, it will be like that, it is not exempt from that fate.'”
— Gautama Buddha, Majjhima Nikaya, as translated by B. Nanamoli and B. Bodhi (1995), Sutta 10, Verse 14.
“It's our mortality that defines us, Soran. It's part of the truth of our existence.”
— Jean-Luc Picard (played by Patrick Stewart) in Star Trek Generations (1994). Story by Brannon Braga, Ronald D. Moore and Rick Berman. See also: The beginning of Youtube Video "Picard Words of Wisdom: Cherish Every Moment. Now Will Never Come Again" (09.12.2019) by user "Major Grin".
“You mortals are so obtuse! Why do you persist in believing that life and death are such static and rigid concepts? Why I can take your life and give it back to you again with the snap of a finger!”
— the trickster god Q in the episode “Tapestry” of the American twentieth-century science fiction television show Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 6
“Mortality is man's invention; not in the logic of life.”
— Erich Maria Remarque, Three Comrades (1936)
“Hier ist die Stelle wo ich sterblich bin.”
— This is the spot where I am mortal.
“It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: "And this, too, shall pass away". How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride!—how consoling in the depth of affliction!”
— Abraham Lincoln, address before the Wisconsin State Agricultural Society, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, September 30, 1859; in Roy P. Basler, ed., The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln (1953), vol. 3, p. 481–82. Many versions of this story exist. Another one is: "The Sultan asked for a Signet motto, that should hold good for Adversity or Prosperity. Solomon gave him, 'This also shall pass away.'"—Edward Fitzgerald, Polonius: A Collection of Wise Saws and Modern Instances, item 112, p. 80 (1901). The words In neez bogzarad, which can be translated, "This also shall pass", appear in the Diven of the twelfth century Persian poet and philosopher, Sana' of Ghazn, ed. Mahir Muaffa, p. 92 (1957).
