Unha aventura de nadal chea de risas, amizade e trampas disparatadas para descubrir o maior segredo de todos.

Morir no es lo que parece es un alegato a la vida, a la esperanza y a la humanidad, de la mano de uno de los mayores expertos sobre la muerte de nuestro país. El doctor Vicente Arráez aborda el proceso de morir desde un punto de vista practico, humano y cientifico. Entre otros muchos asuntos, en este libro podras: - Comprender conceptos que solemos confundir, como mente y cerebro, consciencia y conciencia.- Acercarte al mundo de los sueños, como puertas a la conciencia.- Explorar que son las ECM (Experiencias Cercanas a la Muerte) y las EFV (Experiencias al Final de la Vida).- Aprender a soltar y a despedirte, tanto si eres el se va como si eres el que se queda. Morir no es lo que parece es un estudio desdramatizado y realista sobre la muerte; una vision exhaustiva abordada desde un punto de vista humanista, filosofico y cientifico, de alguien que ha vivido tres ECM y que lleva mas de cuatro decadas trabajando en primera linea de la practica y la pulgacion medica. ¿Preparado para conocer todo lo que no sabias sobre la muerte y la conciencia?

El resultado, Mega-City Uno es convertida en una gran Necropolis con millones de muertos en sus calles.John Wanger (Perro de Estroncio) y Carlos Ezquerra (Rat Pack, Major Eazy) presentan uno de los blockbusters mas recordados de la revista 2000 AD.

Ademas, en este volumen se incluye Cuento del Hombre Muerto, el prologo a Necropolis tambien inedito en nuestro pais.Es complicado que una historia leida con cierta edad llegue al selecto podio de tus favoritas, normalmente ocupado de manera inamovible por las descubiertas de niño o adolescente, ¿verdad? Pues Necropolis, que cayo en mis manos ya pasados los cuarenta, tiene un sitio bien alto asegurado en esa cuspide de las protagonizadas por Dredd que mas disfrute me han dado.
