Review – This is How You Lose the Time War
This book is magnificent.
It is a tale of an unlikely connection through time and space between mortal enemies.
The beautiful prose and the vague, drip by drip introduction to the world and its characters is what make this book work so well.
Truly, I don’t want to say much more about the book because everything seems like either a spoiler or a gross mischaracterization. The language is what makes you get lost in this one. However, it is the way the world building is done that keeps you interested. A slow trickle, through hints and turn of phrases. No info dumps, no clunky dialogue, and yet a vast and complex world is built where time travel makes sense (no easy task!).
