5.0 out of 5 stars magnificent series of books!!, 29 April 2003
By Mr. J. D. Salisbury (Lancashire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
this is the err...5th in the great war/american empire series and every single book has been fantastic. This is alternative history at its very very best!

This book picks up in the mid 1920's and covers a span of around ten years.

before reading this book u must read the others in the collection these are: Great War-American Front
Great War-Walk in Hell
Great War-Breakthrough
American Empire-Blood and Iron

4.0 out of 5 stars American Empire, 29 April 2003
By Matthew Isoo (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A fun book which follows on well from the previous book Harry Turtledove has done it again I am now looking forward to the next book. It’s a shame that the Great War and American Empire have be just set in America it would have been nice to get a look at Britain or the German Empire in this alternate world. Before you read this I would suggest you read American Empire Blood and Iron and the Great War series

4.0 out of 5 stars Another Good Book, 11 Mar 2005
By L. Hancock "leejames666" (Stonehouse, Gloucestershire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There is something really pleasing about the way Harry Turtledove writes. He is a master of History (he has a PHD) and always has strong, well thought out plots.

I don't think you really need to have read the previous books as there is a recap and you could always read this book and then buy the previous one's (believe me!).

Well worth purchasing.

Well worth buying if you have read the previous books in the series. By this point the characters seem like old friends. Read more
