The cover is set on a pale, icy blue background. Centered at the very top, the coauthor name “AMAL EL-MOHTAR” appears in spaced-out, all-capital letters in a medium blue. Below it, the title is large, black, italic, and serifed, arranged in three stacked lines: “This Is How” near the upper third, “You Lose” across the middle, and “the Time War” stretching along the lower third. The title type overlaps the artwork so some letters partially cover the birds. In the center, two birds are composed of rectangular, cut-and-shift fragments that create a segmented, glitch-like collage. The upper bird is a vivid red with a pointed crest, a black patch around the face, and a bright red beak; it faces right, with its tail extending left. Directly beneath it is a blue bird facing left, with a dark eye, a black beak, and darker accents along the wings and tail. The birds overlap at their legs/feet, as if one is perched on the other, with their bodies aligned along the vertical center of the cover. Near the bottom, a small gray blurb reads: “This book has it all.” — Madeline Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Circe. At the bottom center, “MAX GLADSTONE” is printed in red, all caps. A small black square “BOOK CLUB EDITION” mark sits at the lower right.
