Media Reviews
With shocking vividness, Turtledove demonstrates the extreme fragility of our modern world ... This is state-of-the-art alternate history, nothing less * Publishers Weekly on HOW FEW REMAIN *
Turtledove plays heady games with actual history, scattering object lessons and bitter ironies along the way. Strong, complex characters against a sweeping alt-historical background. * Kirkus Reviews on SETTLING ACCOUNTS: RETURN ENGAGEMENT *
Turtledove's books are always great entertainment but in all these novels about an alternate North America the possible route of democracy, demagoguery and repression ring all too true . . . the power of the book is in its ordinary people and their struggles. * SFX Magazine on SETTLING ACCOUNTS: RETURN ENGAGEMENT *
Engrossing . . . definitely the work of one of alternate history's authentic modern masters ... totally fascinating. * Booklist on THE GREAT WAR series *
