PRAISE FOR HARRY TURTLEDOVE THE WORLDWAR SERIES "Readers will have a perfectly delightful time. . . . Turtledove's storytelling and historiography now march in perfect step. World War II buffs will have a particular romp." Chicago Sun-Times "Totally fascinating . . . triumphant . . . possibly the most ambitious in the subgenre's history and definitely the work of one of alternate history's authentic modern masters." Booklist THE COLONIZATION SERIES "Hugo winner Turtledove lives up to his billing as the grand master of alternative history." Publishers Weekly (starred review) "[A] tour de force of speculative historical fiction. Highly recommended." Library Journal

Synopsis
With his epic novels of alternate history, Harry Turtledove shares a stunning vision of what might have been and what might still be if one moment in history were changed. In the WorldWar and Colonization series, an ancient, highly advanced alien species found itself locked in a bitter struggle with a distant, rebellious planet Earth. For those defending the Earth, this all-out war for survival supercharged human technology, made friends of foes, and turned allies into bitter enemies. For the aliens known as the Race, the conflict has yielded dire consequences. Mankind has developed nuclear technology years ahead of schedule, forcing the invaders to accept an uneasy truce with nations that possess the technology to defend themselves. But it is the Americans, with their primitive inventiveness, who discover a way to launch themselves through distant space and reach the Race's home planet itself. Now in the twenty-first century a few daring men and women embark upon a journey no human has made before. Warriors, diplomats, traitors, and exiles the humans who arrive in the place called Home find themselves genuine strangers on a strange world, and at the center of a flash point with terrifying potential. For their arrival on the alien home world may drive the enemy to make the ultimate decision to annihilate an entire planet, rather than allow the human contagion to spread. It may be that nothing can deter them from this course. With its extraordinary cast of characters, human, nonhuman, and some in between Homeward Bound is a fascinating contemplation of cultures, armies, and individuals in collision. From the novelist USA Today calls the leading author of alternate history, this is a novel of vision, adventure, and constant, astounding surprise.

- e***d (75)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoAngels were beautiful! Perfect condition just like the description. Packaged with the utmost care. Slight delay of a few days on delivery but it was communicated to me well and no problem. Price was great because this set is not very common and you never see it for sale.
- 0***5 (410)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoArrived packaged up tight. Shipping speed was fine. I was surprised it took 4 days only because past purchases from Oregon had given me a 2 day expectation…No fault on the seller… Items were as described and good value when compared to current market price. Thank you
- o***6 (46)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoI've bought items before from this seller, and there's a reason I keep coming back. She packs items very securely, the descriptions are always spot-on, and she ships really fast. You can tell she's a conscientious person, which doesn't waiver from sale to sale. This latest purchase was described as "Used, Good," but I never would have guessed it wasn't brand new. It's beautiful, and it's perfect for my purposes. Thank you, Swedemom, you've done it again!
