Can love persist through multiple timelines; against devastating forces of all-powerful empires at war? Unlikely, but that doesn’t stop Red and Blue from trying. Each part of the opposite side, working as an agent killing, destroying, shifting timelines and hunting the other. They connect through secret letters, smuggled in the most innocuous ways. So their relationship blooms, but could it ever last?

The story in this novella is very beautiful, but also bittersweet. There are many references to literature and events of our planet, but also many constructed worlds through which our heroines travel. The only downside is that they’re never polished at all, but maybe that’s for the better? This way, the Red-Blue relationship and their struggles is always in the spotlight.

Overall I had an amazing time with the book, even if the language is a bit difficult and the references quite obscure.
