Tom has just 20 seconds to save the world. But which world will he choose?

This is a love story that could only have happened because of an accident of time travel. In it we meet Tom and Penny, who belong to a world so perfect there’s no war, no poverty, no under-ripe avocados.

Critics Review

A thrilling tale of time travel and alternate timelines with a refreshingly optimistic view of humanity’s future

All Our Wrong Todays is an entertaining romp that should appeal to fans The Time Traveler’s Wife – Best recent science fiction * The Guardian *Sharp, funny writing in a mind-bending, time-travelling junket of a novel * Daily Mail *A mind-bending time travel caper * Guardian * Elan Mastai manages the [time-travel] genre masterfully in his debut novel – Olivia Ovenden * Esquire *A thrilling tale of time travel and alternate timelines with a refreshingly optimistic view of humanity’s future – Andy Weir, author of international bestseller * The Martian *

A novel about time travel has no right to be this engaging. A novel this engaging has no right to be this smart. And a novel this smart has no right to be this funny. Or insightful. Or immersive. Basically, this novel has no right to exist.”

* Jonathan Tropper, New York Times bestselling author of This Is Where I Leave You and One Last Thing Before I Go *Elan Mastai has conjured up a witty and freewheeling time-traveling romance that packs an emotional wallop. All Our Wrong Todays is a page-turning delight – Maria Semple, author of * Where’d You Go, Bernadette *All Our Wrong Todays is elaborately constructed and incredibly emotionally intelligent; it’s a story with super high stakes that genuinely makes you feel every part of Tom’s awful predicament * SciFiNow *

Witty, original, funny, charming - a great story!

* Joe Haddow, BBC Radio 2 Book Club *It’s all very clever, but it’s also not really the point. Because as well as being an intelligent sci-fi story, it’s also a love story, and kind of a monomyth, and also just an incredibly relatable, insightful story about being in your 30s, feeling like you haven’t achieved anything, and figuring out what’s next * SciFiNow UK *
