Reading a new Lavie Tidhar novel is always a treat. You can count on engaging prose paired with an inventive story and The Circumference of the World certainly fits that bill.

Jumping between seemingly unrelated narrative threads, Tidhar spins a tale about an elusive novel that galvanizes everyone in its orbit. We rarely stick with one thread long enough to reach a resolution, but in the end, the sections tie together in an intriguing way.

If you're looking for a brisk read from a unique voice in science fiction, give this one a shot!

My thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.
