An absolutely riveting ride - I read this in two sittings, unable to put it down. The
time travel timeline
broke my brain a bit before I fully grasped what was happening, so I'm hoping to revisit it soon to savor the prose and pick up on details I might have missed.

Hurley's ultra-capitalist dystopia is a terrifying vision of an imagined future, and the novel doesn't flinch away from everything that entails. There's a powerful anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist critique here, and the book is better for it.
