"The continuation of the long and intricate alternate history track Harry Turtledove began with a "what if" change of events during the Civil War. For me, this series is addictive. The characters and events are intriguing and I want to know what happens next. "

— Jenny, 10/26/2010" This is where the series really started to drop off, by paralleling events of our time line too closely. "
