About this listen

'Do you remember when we had the vote?'

In a world that's just a step away from our own, time travel is possible. But war is brewing - a secret group is trying to destroy women's rights and their access to the timeline. If they succeed, only a small elite will have the power to shape the past, present, and future.

Our only hope lies with an unlikely group of allies, from riot grrls to revolutionaries, their lives separated by centuries, battling for a world where anyone can change the future. A final confrontation is coming.

The Future of Another Timeline is a thrilling science fiction tale from Annalee Newitz, the founding editor of io9, about the lengths we'll go to make history.

OK. Just ok.

Time travel stories are hard. This has an interesting spin but I felt it got bogged down trying to hammer home a point.

Great ideas, but...

The initial ideas are really interesting, but the way they're developed is incredibly frustrating. On a micro scale, scene by scene, the book is great, but on a macro scale, looking at how scenes affect each other, it's a structural mess. Many of the ideas at play here are undernourished. The ambitions for the book far outstripped what it could ever reasonably accomplish.
