Now, there’s not time travel going on here, per se, but one of our primary characters, the inscrutable Keita Mori, is clairvoyant, which amounts to the same thing, particularly in the sense that as he intimates to various characters (particularly our protagonist, Thaniel Steepleton) his knowledge concerning the course of future events and subtly suggests how they might change them, that, in turn, changes his knowledge and perception of what is to come, resulting in the need to shove a banana into your ear so it can get to your brain (because potassium helps with cramps, right?). Where I tend to start losing the thread and incur cramping of the cerebellum (which is only slightly less painful than a calf cramp in the middle of the night) is when time travel gets involved. ("It's a taste treat! It's a laxative! Stop-you're BOTH right!") Is this historical fiction? Steampunk? Mystery? Alternate history? Romance? Yes, sort of, a little, kind of, and yeah, sure. Generally speaking, I’m fully on board with genre-defying/genre-bending works.
