'Engrossing ... definitely the work of one of alternate history's authentic modern masters . . . totally fascinating.' Booklist on THE GREAT WAR series

'The latest volume in Turtledove's colossal and brialliant saga of an alternate (and disunited) United States may be the strongest and most compelling since the opener, HOW FEW REMAIN.' Publishers Weekly on AMERICAN EMPIRE series

As the alien race start to make planet Earth their permanent home, the countries of the world are adapting - each in their own way. The German Reich fights on, and plan big and greater weaponry to close the technological gap with the super-advanced invaders. While the US walk the fine line between resistance and appeasement. As each nation adapts to life shared with the race, the prospect of fighting them off seems to recede ever further into the distance.
