A God in Ruins is Kate Atkinson's ninth novel, published in 2015. The main character, Teddy Todd is the younger brother of Ursula Todd, the protagonist in Atkinson's 2013 novel, Life After Life. Atkinson calls it the "companion piece" rather than a sequel to the earlier novel. The first book spans half a century, including World War II; the second is set entirely within it. It won the Costa Book Award for Novel in 2015.

Review of 'A God in Ruins (Todd Family, #2)' on 'Goodreads'

I think I was ready to give this four or five stars, but then Atkinson kind of ruined it at the end with some extreme author intrusion and over-explaining. I guess, don't read the author's note at the end unless you were genuinely confused and didn't read Life After Life first.
