Book Reviews by Digital AmritBook Reviews by Digital AmritReview of 'One Day All This Will Be Yours' by Adrian Tchaikovskytl;dr: 'One Day All This Will Be Yours' is a wickedly funny and inventive look at time travel. The novella's protagonist is the sole survivor of The War to End All Wars. That epithet seems unlikely given how many wars the world has seen, with each conflict being named so. But in this case, it might actually be true, since the weapons used are time travel devices.

'Gideon', the titular character, is a bonded servant of the Ninth House of Necromancy, in a galaxy far away, in some leprous future. She wants to be rid of the House and strike out on her own. The Emperor invites Harrowhark, the heiress of the House, to take part in a series of trials. Harrowhark's current cavalier can't cut it, and so, Gideon gets pressed into service.
