Reviews
"Exists in a category all its own: a novel about grief, ambition, and love that is somehow both gripping and deeply felt, as breath-taking as it is mind-bending. Aja Gabel's prose is like music, vivid with wisdom, curiosity, and emotion." -Rachel Khong, New York Times bestselling author of Real Americans "Compassionate and prismatic, an intellectual adventure as well as a deeply human meditation on memory, family, and reinvention. Aja Gabel's second novel is my favorite kind: soulful science fiction that speaks to the mind as well as the heart." -Chloe Benjamin, New York Times bestselling author of The Immortalists "A magisterial and moving novel about love and grief that is somehow unsentimental and yet extraordinarily tender... Lightbreakers is complex, startling, and impossibly alive."-Kevin Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of Nothing to See Here "A marriage story that twists into a sci-fi thriller, posing questions about the elusiveness of the past and the time-jumping nature of grief. Like walking down a hall of mirrors, mesmerized by its reflections and refractions, reading Lightbreakers made me see things anew." -Ling Ma, author of Severance "Audaciously tackles life's most formative experiences: love and loss.

    Description of 'like new' was accurate, book arrived a couple of days ahead of estimated date, and it arrived in a slightly padded envelope but no damage was on the book. The price was a little high for a book that's 2 years old, but cheaper than what I found elsewhere. I would buy from this seller again.

    The manga came just as described by Big River Books and I am overall very happy with it. One thing that really impressed me was the way, the team handled some issues/false tracking info, which was 100% caused by errors on my and the delivering company's side. They handled the situation with utmost patience and were very customer orientated, which I do not take for granted, considering the circumstances.
