THE MINISTRY OF TIME

by Kaliane Bradley

An excellent book—intelligent, entertaining, unexpected, exciting, and exceptionally well written, with a plot combining a love story and time travel—so perfectly handled that the time travel feels completely natural. Bradley slips in references to the future and talks about the present in the past, playing oh so cleverly with the notion of time. She combines humour with thrilling action, and grand ideas with tiny moments of intimacy, to create a unique and satisfying mix of genres.
