    Poetic time travelling does indeed exist

    So, so well written. It made me pause multiple times just to let the words sink in. It’s a love story - and it’s confusing in the beginning. But as you get familiar with the characters you learn your way around this world. And the beautifully crafted love declarations are one of a kind.

    Masterpiece

    The prose, the poetry, the plot, an astonishing masterpiece <3 And the Deluxe Edition is just beautiful :) Two Characters on the opposite side of changing the world and it’s history. But their deeply connected and leave letters for each other. A tale of trust and love. The world building is masterfully executed and directly implied in the prose or the letters that start every chapter. Some say it was difficult to read. I’d put it like this: It‘s good to be attentive and observant while reading but it’s absolutely worth it. Even if you get lost or carried away sometimes by the wonderful, empathetic and poetic writing. Just go with it, enjoy it. If you really feel like you didn’t get or missed something just go back a few lines. Read again. Your effort will be rewarded :)

    so so beautiful

    This story was so beautiful that it gave me goosebumps and I devoured it. This Is How You Lose the Time War is a short love story about two rival agents on opposite sides of a time war. Through their letters, we gradually witness their characters and their relationship gradually unfolding. Full of yearning, it’s a captivating and intimate read with such beautiful prose. I almost never reread books, but I would pick this one up again just to take in every detail and etch the words into my mind. The fact that the main characters are two strong, smart and badass women makes the story even more powerful.  I should mention that I initially found it difficult to follow and it may not be for everyone. I think that it is intentionally disorienting, with the time shifts and a lack of context, so you have to slow down while reading and can interpret parts of the story as you wish. For me, though, every moment of confusion was worth it, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for something different.

    This Is How You Invent Beautiful Love Stories

    Neither poetry nor love -- which in some cases is the same thing - was not invented before This Is How You Lose the Time War ny Max Gladstone and Amal El-Mohtar. It's is a collection of love letters written by two rival women fighting on opposing fronts to win the time war. The letters are written across time and space -- following its own queer chronology, marking time and space, marking bodies. One of the most beautiful love stories and use of prose I have ever read.

    a sci-fi gem!

    I would have never imagined that I'd tear up reading about time-travelling agents fighting on opposite sides of a war, who then fall in love through the letters they send each other... But well, I did. This book paints a dystopian future with bloodthirsty battles fought through time and space and, at the same time, manages to be full of poetic writing and heartachingly beautiful loveconfessions! I can't recommend it enough!

    one of a kind

    "This Is How You Lose the Time War" is a story that is hard to put into words—unique, poetic, and deeply profound. You have to immerse yourself in its distinctive language and unusual narrative style, but once you find the rhythm, you are completely captivated. At the heart of the story are two rival agents, Blue and Red, who initially encounter one another only through letters. Their rivalry slowly gives way to a connection that grows increasingly intense and meaningful. It is precisely this exchange of letters that makes the story so special. This is not a book to be read casually. It demands your full attention, yet rewards it with an extraordinary tale rich in emotion, poetry, and nuance. A truly special book that touched me deeply and will resonate with me long after I’ve finished reading it.

    Unequivocally beautiful and soul touching

    "But when I think of you, I want to be alone together. I want to strive against and for. I want to live in contact. I want to be a context for you, and you for me." A love story between two time-travel agents who fight on opposite sides of a futuristic war told through a series of beautifully crafted letters, co-written by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone, each writing one of the two protagonists. This Sci-Fi Novel contains very little context or explanation of what is happening and why. But that´s the beauty of it; it doesn´t matter. This book was a deep, emotional, painful, insanely touching experience. I have never read anything like this and i doubt i will ever love another book as much.

    Don't miss out on this brilliant...

    Don't miss out on this brilliant short novel about two rival time travel agents falling in love despite all odds. The plot is masterfully crafted and comes together perfectly, and Red and Blue's letters to each other are some of the most romantic pieces of writing ON THIS EARTH.
