Review

" This Is How You Lose the Time War is rich and strange, a romantic tour through all of time and the multiverse, and you shouldnt miss a moment. (Martha Wells, Hugo Award-winning author of The Murderbot Diaries )

"This book has it all: treachery and love, lyricism and gritty action, existential crisis and space-opera scope, not to mention time traveling superagents. Gladstone's and El-Mohtar's debut collaboration is a fireworks display from two very talented storytellers." (Madeline Miller, award-winning author of Circe )

Poetry, disguised as genre fiction. I read several sections out loud this is prose that wants to be more than read. It wants to be heard and tasted. (Kelly Sue DeConnick, author of Captain Marvel )

An intimate and lyrical tour of time, myth and history, with a captivating conversation between charactersand authors. Read it. (New York Times bestselling author John Scalzi )

A time travel adventure that has as much humanity, grace, and love as it has temporal shenanigans, rewriting history, and temporal agents fighting to the death.Two days from now, you've already devoured it. (Ryan North, New York Times Bestselling and Eisner Award winning author of How To Invent Everything: A Survival Guide For The Stranded Time Traveler )

"A twisting, sapphic time travel fantasy love story that never stops surprising: El-Mohtar and Gladstone have written the ultimate in enemies-to-lovers romance. (Booklist, Starred Review)
