Description

In a financial market where the fabric of time can be traded, Tallie must choose whether to erase innocent people from history.

Tallie works for The House - a shadowy conglomerate who trade financial instruments that modify history. She has the opportunity to make the Napalm Trade - delivering The House billions in profit, but making napalm more deadly in both the present and the past.

Journeying from the Ukrainian battlefield to the Tokyo office floor, THE PAST TRADER is a highly original debut novella that questions greed, violence, the uncertainty of time, and the consequences of financial speculation.

This was such a unique sci-fi I was hooked from the first page. Some parts were slightly confusing due to some more technical language, however that may be purposeful but overall this is a really quick interesting read and I would highly recommend for anyone who likes sci-fi as this is unlike anything I’ve read before.

The book was engaging, although it had very technical writing at times. The story was fun, I enjoyed the characters, and I found it hard to put down for the most part. The ending seemed to come out of nowhere, and it felt a little unfinished due to this.

Overall an enjoyable read. Lots of scientific talk shoved in between dialog. The ending felt a bit abrupt and made me feel as if the story was unfinished. Some engaging writing here though Tallie’s travel made me feel tired just reading about it.
