The Alchemist by H.P. Lovecraft

dark funny fast-paced

3.5

While this story was very short and not world changing, I definitely thought it was a fun read. 
If you need any motivation to read it, just know that the sorcerers name is literally Charles Le Sorcier and oh boy, let me tell you about his life...

Writing a logical time traveling fiction is very hard and I can only say that Max Gladstone and Amal El-Mohtar definitely succeeded. 
Makes me want to go back in time to read it for the first time again.

5.0

The amount of algos they had to go through to come to the realization they are each others nostos is just not okay. (I hope you see what I did there)

But also asides from the awesome romance the unique plot and the interesting concept of Prophet definitely makes it a book worth reading. 100% recommend.

I will definitely sound very mean for saying this, but
I am kinda glad they didn't end up together.

I was mostly here for the great plot and fighting scenes and not the romance.

When I signed up for a funny space podcast I didn't know I would also be signing up for this emotional roller-coaster, but then again I am not the only one who didn't know what's she'd get herself into.... 
In that regard I am doing way better than the others.
