Harry Turtledove Harry Turtledove's rousing saga of a fantastic world at war, which began in Into the Darkness and continued through Darkness Descending, Through the Darkness, Rulers of the Darkness, and Jaws of Darkness, draws to its climactic conclusion in Out of the Darkness. Now Harry Turtledove, one of today's most popular writers of fantasy and SF, contributes a novel to the Conan saga--a tale of Conan in his youth, in the year or so before he becomes the wandering adventurer we know from the tales of Howard and others. When the Great War engulfed Europe in 1914, the United States and the Confederate States of America, bitter enemies for five decades, entered the fray on opposite sides: the United States aligned with the newly strong Germany, while the Confederacy joined forces with their longtime allies, Britain and France. www.vectornut.com /authors/HarryTurtledove.html

Locus Online: Harry Turtledove interview excerpts A prolific and popular writer of alternate history novels, Harry Turtledove was inspired to study Byzantine history after reading L. Sprague de Camp's 1941 novel Lest Darkness Fall, and eventually earned a Ph.D. in that subject from UCLA. The Harry Turtledove Website, maintained by Steve H Silver, catalogues the author's many works. Turtledove's long running "Videssos" cycle, about Romans transported to another universe, began in 1987 with The Misplaced Legion. www.locusmag.com /2003/Issue02/Turtledove.html   (225 words)

Buy.com - Rulers of the Darkness : Harry Turtledove : ISBN 0765300362 As the millennium approaches, Turtledove is involved in writing no less than three huge series--the above-mentioned Worldwar, The Great War, and Darkness--all of which are scheduled to wrap up around the year 2001. Beginning with INTO THE DARKNESS, DARKNESS DESCENDING, and THROUGH THE DARKNESS, bestselling author Harry Turtledove has been telling an epic tale: the story of a world war, comparable in its sweep and some details to our own World War II, in a world where magic works. His first two novels, written in the late 1970s, were originally published under a pseudonym, in part because his editor didn't think that anyone would believe that "Turtledove" was a real name. www.buy.com /prod/Rulers_of_the_Darkness/q/loc/106/30877543.html   (225 words)

Amazon.com: Books: Through the Darkness (World at War, Book 3) Harry Turtledove continues his (sort of) retelling of World War II in "Through the Darkness", the third book in his World-War-II-as-a-fantasy-epic series. The third chapter in Turtledove's acclaimed alternate history-fantasy series (after Darkness Descending and Into the Darkness) expands on its WWII framework, providing a vivid portrait of a land torn by the horrors of out-of-control political ambition and magical warfare. In fact, the Pacific War practically does not exist in the series as the role of China seems to be portrayed by Unkerlant, the Russia-equivalent, and the entire Pacific War is told from the perspective of one character given roughly equal weight with the other people whose stories are told. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/081258919X?v=glance   (367 words)

LEST DARKNESS FALL by L. Sprague de Camp (Harry Turtledove in his introduction talks about how it changed his life, giving a great example of how alternate histories work: what if he hadn't read it?) It is a book that should be in print and I'm glad to see Baen has brought it back. The cover describes it as "the novel that defined a genre," and while there were earlier alternate histories, this was the first to make a major impression on the science fiction field. It is interesting that it has been reissued just as de Camp was given a "Special Achievement" Sidewise Award for Alternate History, and it was cited along with his works THE WHEELS OF IF and "A Gun for Aristotle" as major seminal works in the genre. www.nesfa.org /reviews/Leeper/lestdark.html   (468 words)
