About the Book

THE GRIPPING FIRST ADULT FANTASY NOVEL FROM A.F. STEADMAN, AUTHOR OF THE AWARD-WINNING AND INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING SKANDAR SERIES!

At twenty-one, Artemis has just graduated top of her Cambridge class of assassins, the most respected discipline in the Faculty’s army. As a timeless soldier, she will travel in and out of linear time, protecting the fragile future with her lethal hands. Along with her crew—a navigator, an armourer, a historian and a medic—she will do whatever it takes to stop the destruction of history by dangerous time vandals.

Although Artemis might look like she’s got everything she ever wanted, growing up in Cambridge hasn’t been easy. Assassins must be ruthless to survive; she’s made enemies, discarded a fair few lovers, and has a secret that could lose her everything she’s worked for. And things don’t get any simpler once she and her crew start to travel.

For Artemis is going to meet a time vandal who has been waiting for her. And despite knowing this man is devastation distilled—the epitome of the very war she is fighting—she is going to break all the rules and let him live.

Will this be a mistake she comes to regret? Or the catalyst to unravelling the tangled secrets of the only world she’s ever known…and her true place within it?

Dark, twisted, and bombastic, Steadman has come to the adult fantasy scene to set it on fire. TimeLess shows that Steadman is a master of the slow unravelling, as everything Artemis has been raised to believe comes apart at the seams and drags everyone she cares about into the hazard. I am desperate for book two."—Hannah Kaner, Sunday Times bestselling author of Godkiller

"A dark and delicious, blood-soaked, beautiful thing, TimeLess is a sheer joy to read and a masterclass in intimate yet high-stakes fantasy. But beware!
