Kirkus ✓ GET IT · BookLife by Publishers Weekly ⚡ Editor’s Pick · Foreword Clarion 5 out of 5 · Literary Titan 5★ Gold Book Award · 2× American Fiction Awards Winner'An engaging time-travel romp that mashes up Jung and Doctor Who to masterful effect.' - Kirkus Reviews'A deep, winding epic about hope, empathy, and living in the moment... Lovers of humane SF will find much to relish.' - BookLife Reviews by Publishers WeeklyKikiloa, both the 200,000-year-old Mitochondrial Eve and a modern teenage trickster, time-surfs across universes seeking an answer to time’s inevitable end. Perhaps her ordinary friend Hazel holds the key. This award-winning literary science fiction debut asks: Is it better to hope, or accept the end?The Kikiloa Chronicles is the wildest surf trip imaginable, where you never know what the next wave brings - a glowing, complex, multilayered story packed with vivid characters. It spans present-day shenanigans in San Francisco and Marin County, the dystopian dawn of humanity in prehistoric Africa, and a cat-and-mouse game with an enigmatic mentor that stretches from a tsunami in pre-contact Hawaiʻi to the end of time itself. Holding it all together is Kiki: everywhere all at once, ancient beyond measure, flawed and lonely with plenty of charm.Beneath the multiverse machinery run the real currents: mortality, purpose, hope, acceptance, love, self-discovery, and the stubborn value of human connection. Filled with mind-bending scientific and philosophical questions, the story never stops moving, and every scene lands with feeling. It’s funny, haunting, and beautiful in the same breath.'Ambitious and deeply imaginative' and 'unlike anything else,' The Kikiloa Chronicles lingers long after the final page.For anyone who wants a story that refuses to play it safe.Circe meets The Midnight Library in the spirit of Ursula K. Le Guin. 6
