About the book

Wildly original, funny and moving, The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August is an extraordinary story of a life lived again and again from World Fantasy Award-winning author Claire North.

Harry August is on his deathbed. Again.

No matter what he does or the decisions he makes, when death comes, Harry always returns to where he began, a child with all the knowledge of a life he has already lived a dozen times before. Nothing ever changes.

Until now.

As Harry nears the end of his eleventh life, a little girl appears at his bedside. "I nearly missed you, Doctor August," she says. "I need to send a message."

This is the story of what Harry does next, and what he did before, and how he tries to save a past he cannot change and a future he cannot allow.

Magical and intelligent. Quantum physics is not something I am hugely interested in (and, to be quite frank, I did expect a very different story when I read the summary and bought it on a whim), but fortunately it turned out to be one of my favourite books.

This was a fun read. Kinda. Harry's alright as a character, even if he's a little bland for being 600+ years old. Speaking of which, I liked the premise a lot. And how the plot developed is alright too. I wish it had gone more into the deep end irt the implications the immortals would have on the real world. And especially on how changes propagate through time. Anyway, because of that this book was closer to 2.5 than to 3 for me.
