For fans of The Last of Us and This Is How You Lose the Time War comes a queer, shockingly joyful post-apocalyptic romance about two soldiers who must choose between their convictions and each other.

Seven years after AI destroyed civilization, field medic Amir has made peace with the truth: the human Resistance will lose. All he can do is patch up the wounded and harden his heart. Yet when a furious, newly paralyzed soldier named Javier gets dragged onto Amir’s table, a clash of wills becomes a romance neither of them planned for. 

Wracked by survivor’s guilt, Javier is hell-bent on dying for the cause, forcing Amir to confront his own demons and decide what he stands for—and whether a future without Javier is even worth fighting for?

Tender and shot through with wit, Hearts Against the Machines asks whether hope is still an act of courage when the war is already lost.
