Summary
'An exhilarating ride through an alternate history.'



-GEORGE GALDORISI, New York Times bestselling author



 



THE YEAR IS 1862, IN A WORLD THAT VERY NEARLY WAS...



 



In one of the most unsettling 'what-if' reversals to American history, the Union Army is overrun at the Battle of Antietam. Left with no alternative, President Lincoln surrenders, and the Confederate States of America becomes an independent nation. It's a tragic twist that will produce dire, far-reaching ramifications.



As the divided American nations move into the twentieth century, slavery has long since been abolished; but in the summer of 1941, America faces another challenge-an existential challenge.Almost a century after the Civil War, the disastrous consequences of the Union defeat are threatening freedom on both sides of the Atlantic.



The Second World War represents the defining event of the twentieth century. History dictates the United States must play the decisive role in defeating Adolf Hitler and the Nazis-but that history is no longer intact. America has been divided into two nations, and the resulting shift in global power has altered the course of the conflict, bringing all of North America and Western Europe to the brink of annihilation.



In the spring of 1945, as the Nazis are preparing to deliver the final blow, a young academic and a small, elite group of American airmen are about to determine the fate of the world.



FREEDOM'S VERY SURVIVAL IS COMING DOWN TO ONE, LAST-DITCH MISSION.

I thoroughly enjoyed this title. As the description said, I am a fan of Man in the High Castle and even though it wasn’t the same timeline, it definitely showed the same idea of how history could have been. That being said, the narrator seemed monotone and awkward when reading. His pronunciations for a few well known names such as Göring and Dönitz were horribly mispronounced and the accents and cadence of some of the impressions of historical figures was painful to listen to.

This was everything I was hoping for, on reading the synopsis. This is possibly the best audiobook I have yet listened to. The premise is thoroughly filled out, and the details of historical events painstakingly lain down towards its unguessable conclusion. Frankly, the book ought to be required reading. The audio quality was top shelf, allowing the full force of Dylan Walker's narrative talents to shine. His mastery of timing, intonation, and accents was superb. I urge everyone to listen to this rendering of a tale they will not soon forget, and will never regret. Good show. Good show, indeed.
