"ONE OF THE MOST MEMORABLE SERIES OF ALTERNATIVE HISTORY NOVELS EVER WRITTEN."--Science Fiction Age World War II has evolved into decades of epic struggles and rebellions targeting the aliens known as the Race.

Ultimately, only superior firepower may keep Earth under the Empire's control--or it may destroy the world. While uprisings and aftershocks of war shake the planet, one nation plots a stunning counterattack . . ."Hugo winner Turtledove lives up to his billing as the grand master of alternative history. . . .
