Thank you to NetGalley, Rebellion Publishing, and the author for an advanced copy for review. Pick up this novella for a meaningful adventure. It was fun to speculate… and the path Tchaikovsky chose was interesting, but it didn’t work for me. I questioned over and over while reading about how he was going to end this trip through the sands of time. The one small piece of criticism is that the ending fell a little flat for me.

It seems like there was a chuckle, a aha moment, or a wicked reference on every page. With a veteran writer like this, you will get a plot arc that is expertly written and chapters which pull you forward with increasing tension. I have never cracked open a book by Tchaikovsky and I am happy to have this as a bit-size intro. Yes, he spends his time sabotaging any other travelers in an effort to make sure that no war ever erupts again.įilled with funny allusions and a narrator with a attitude, One Day This Will Be Yours is a most enjoyable novella. Now, he minds his farm, takes vacations to watch famous actors of days past, and sics his pet dino on any curious tourists. A conflict fought with time machines… dismantling, destroying, and infrequently detangling time. Where one man remains: our nameless narrator.

The credibility in his writing is created with an explanation not of the process but of the result. I’m happy to report that Tchaikovsky’s description falls somewhere in between. Time travel writing always falls somewhere on the spectrum between hard core science-y and ‘poof’ magic. For starters… It’s important to know my thoughts on Time Travel writing, a genre that at times is not my favorite.
