Book Synopsis Coup d'Etat (The War That Came Early, Book Four) by : Harry Turtledove
Download or read book Coup d'Etat (The War That Came Early, Book Four) written by Harry Turtledove and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1941, a treaty between England and Germany unravels—and so does a different World War II. In Harry Turtledove’s mesmerizing alternate history of World War II, the choices of men and fate have changed history. Now it is the winter of 1941. As the Germans, with England and France on their side, slam deep into Russia, Stalin’s terrible machine fights for its life. But the agreements of world leaders do not touch the hearts of soldiers. The war between Germany and Russia is rocked by men with the courage to aim their guns in a new direction. England is the first to be shaken. Following the suspicious death of Winston Churchill, with his staunch anti-Nazi views, a small cabal begins to imagine the unthinkable in a nation long famous for respecting the rule of law. With civil liberties hanging by a thread, a conspiracy forms against the powers that be. What will this daring plan mean for the European war as a whole? Meanwhile, in America, a woman who has met Hitler face-to-face urges her countrymen to wake up to his evil. For the time being, the United States is fighting only Japan—and the war is not going as well as Washington would like. Can Roosevelt keep his grip on the country’s imagination? Coup d’Etat captures how war makes for the strangest of bedfellows. A freethinking Frenchman fights side by side with racist Nazis. A Czech finds himself on the dusty front lines of the Spanish Civil War, gunning for Germany’s Nationalist allies. A German bomber pilot courts a half-Polish, half-Jewish beauty in Bialystock. And the Jews in Germany, though trapped under Hitler’s fist, are as yet protected by his fear of looking bad before the world—and by an outspoken Catholic bishop. With his spectacular command of character, coincidence, and military and political strategies, Harry Turtledove continues a passionate, unmatched saga of a World War II composed of different enemies, different allies—and hurtling toward a horrific moment. For a diabolical new weapon is about to be unleashed, not by the United States, but by Japan, in a tactic that will shock the world. Praise for Coup d’Etat “Turtledove’s masterful presentation of an alternate WWII reaches its fourth volume with its quality undiminished. . . . A tribute to [his] commanding skills.”—Booklist (starred review) “For lovers of alternative history, and particularly the very popular Turtledove with his appealing weaponry, battle tactics, and setting details, this story will satisfy. It sets out to entertain . . . and that it does.”—Historical Novels Review “The book’s grand scope and Turtledove’s impressive historical knowledge are admirable.”—Kirkus Reviews

Book Synopsis Last Orders (The War That Came Early, Book Six) by : Harry Turtledove
Download or read book Last Orders (The War That Came Early, Book Six) written by Harry Turtledove and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2014-07-15 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History is changed by one small act. In an extraordinary saga of nations locked in war, master storyteller Harry Turtledove examines a very different World War II—one which erupts eleven months earlier, and over Czechoslovakia rather than Poland. Now comes the final installment in this landmark series. Hitler’s Plan A was to win in a hurry, striking hard and deep into France. There was no Plan B. Now the war grinds on. Countries have been forced into strange alliances. The Nazis fortify thin lines with Hungarian and Romanian troops. England, finding its footing after the suspicious death of Winston Churchill and a coup d’état, fights back in Europe and on the seas of the North Atlantic. Jews fight on both sides of the war—in secret in German uniform, openly in Spain, France, and Russia. Into the standoff come new killing tools, from tanks to bazookas. In the Pacific, Japan prepares bombs filled with macabre biological concoctions to be dropped on Hawaii. For the U.S., the only enemy is Japan, as there has been no casus belli for America in Europe. Then Hitler becomes desperate and declares war on the United States. But is it too late? His own people are rising up in revolt. The German military may have to put down the violence, even perhaps bomb its own cities. In this epic drama, real men and women are shaped by the carnage, and their individual acts in turn shape history. Drawing on the gritty, personal reality of war and on a cast of unforgettable characters, Harry Turtledove has written an alternate history that intrigues, fascinates, and astounds. Praise for Last Orders “From our perspective seventy years later, we’re accustomed to thinking of WWII’s outcome as being inevitable. Not so, says [Harry] Turtledove. . . . Disdaining broad brush strokes, Turtledove’s focus on the characters serves to fill out the big picture with patient, nitty-gritty detail. It’s all quite plausible. . . . Armchair warriors will have much to ponder.”—Kirkus Reviews Praise for Harry Turtledove “If you like alternate histories, you’re going to like this series a lot.”—The San Diego Union-Tribune “Turtledove is the standard-bearer for alternate history.”—USA Today Coup d’Etat “This is what alternative history is all about.”—Historical Novel Society The Big Switch “The Hugo Award winner continues to delight in exploring the world of ‘what if?’”—Library Journal West and East “There’s plenty to satisfy fans of military strategy, tactics, and armaments.”—Publishers Weekly Hitler’s War “Turtledove is always good, but this return to World War II . . . is genuinely brilliant. . . . The characterizations in particular bring the book to extraordinary life.”—Booklist

Download or read book West and East (The War That Came Early, Book Two) written by Harry Turtledove and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2011-05-24 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if British prime minister Neville Chamberlain had defied Hitler? What if the Munich Accord had gone unsigned, and Nazi Germany had launched its bid for conquest sooner? How would World War II have unfolded—and with what consequences? Dean of alternate history Harry Turtledove has the stunning answers in his breathtaking sequel to Hitler’s War. In the wake of Hitler’s bold invasion of Czechoslovakia, nations turn against nations, old enemies form new alliances, and ordinary men and women confront extraordinary life-and-death situations. An American marine falls in love with a Russian dancer in Japanese-held Singapore, as Chinese guerilla resistance erupts. A sniper on the frontlines of France finds a powerful new way to ply his deadly art—while a German assassin hunts him. In the icy North Atlantic, as a U-boat with a secret weapon wreaks havoc on British ships, occupying Nazi forces target Denmark. And in Germany, a stranded American woman encounters Hitler himself, as a Jewish family faces the rising tide of hatred. From Siberia to Spain, armies clash, sides are chosen, new weapons raise the deadly ante, and new strategies seek to break a growing stalemate. But one question hangs over the conflict from West to East: What will it take to bring America into this war?

Download or read book Mica's Brain written by Dina von Zweck and published by Club Lighthouse Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-02 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a magician [Blust-O] tries to hypnotize a woman [Mica] on stage, giving her the power to fly, she enters a floating world that takes her to the past, the future…and away from the present where she is taken hostage in a theatre by terrorists. The three Micas (present/future/past) live in different historical times…And perhaps in the same brain…with the same passion for truth, the same pulse of sexual energy. Part I / The Present / NYC 35 year-old Mica Paradis thinks her lover, Richard is betraying her. Distraught, she attends a fund-raising event and impulsively volunteers to be hypnotized on-stage by Blust-O, an other-worldly creature with peculiar proclivities and perversities. When gun-wielding terrorists take the entire audience hostage, Mica is still entranced…There is nothing the hypnotist can do to bring her back--except to follow her into the floating world with a strange box strapped to his back. The sand-coloured box contains a gift that is both mythic and erotic. Part II / The Future / Tokyo When a manga artist, Hiro Mitaguri, creates Mica, the Miracle Girl, she surprises him by taking over the story. Inviting him into the plot, she seduces him into writing himself into the story as a character: the Animator. Flying back into his version of the narrative, she battles the evil ACCETES who will stop at nothing to capture her memories and use them to destroy the world. Her quest is to vanquish ACCETES, retrieve the Golden Box from the Theatre of Surprises…and keep control of her brain. And rather than being just a sidekick, the Animator is a sinister voyeur, watching his own creation, a cyborg, become human and more and more sensual. Action shifts back and forth between graphic sequential art episodes (manga)…to even more terrifying natural and unnatural disasters let loose on the planet. In the future---as in the present---fears, hopes and urgencies that confront everyday citizens are ignored by those in power. Part III / 1777 / Vienna When Anton Mesmer demonstrates the miraculous powers of Animal Magnetism, 5-year-old Mica is in the audience watching him bring sight to a blind girl. A bizarre system of fluids and the curative power of light streaming from his fingers disturbs Mica and disrupts her sight. Now she sees beyond the surface of things, and apprehends the future--without understanding the unfolding images in her brain…or the folding and enfolding Universe in which she travels. Mother flirts with Herr Burger and maybe more is going on…Father, sadly, finds the truth. Mother resists Mesmer's powers to cure her of somnambulism by imbuing the Tree of Life plant in her garden with vital fluids that can curtail nightly wanderings. At first the blind girl's father agrees to her further treatments…but then accuses Mesmer of being a charlatan, and causes an uproar
