Very moving from beginning to end. Amal El-Mohtar has a prose that flows like poetry. Just a genuine joy to read. For me, I'd like to highlight the title short story "Seasons of Glass and Iron" and one closer to the end "John Hollowback and the Witch". Easy 5 stars

The River Has Roots was in my top 5 for last year - a wonderful exploration of friendship, love and folklore. You can’t begin to understand how excited I am to dive into Seasons of Glass & Iron.

A story of two time operatives falling in love, leaving love notes for each other in anomalies🥀 Id love to give this another chance by reading it physically. The audiobook was beautiful but hard to follow 6.5/10 💙📚 #maxgladstone #booksky #booklover #scifi #romance #amalelmohtar #TIHYLTTW #poetry

This has been one of the least forgiving texts I’ve read in a while. But it’s grown on me. Can’t wait to return to it in a year or two, to see what I discover. #ThisIsHowYouLoseTheTimeWar #AmalElMohtar #MaxGladstone #BookChat #booksky

#ThisIsHowYouLoseTheTimeWar by #AmalElMohtar & #MaxGladstone is an incredible example of creative use of epistolary storytelling! It was a blast to read through a time bending love story that carries the reader through a kaleidoscoping war between two all powerful factions with the same weakness 📚💙

"A witch is a kind of justice in the world. It makes for a fine story. No one wants to admit the truth, for it all stares them plainly in the face."

"What's that?"

The River Has Roots is my first 5⭐️ read this year. A quick novella, but worth every single beautifully placed word. I'd read it again and again.

Impeccable.
