Reception
The Guardian described Hazards of Time Travel as an "unrelentingly disturbing read", praising the author's ability to write convincingly about "the pervasive misery of living in fear", but also remarking that the book "appears skeletal, super-intelligent, yet somehow depleted. It seems to have been written in an abbreviated rush."[5]
