    That old potboiler merchant Harry Turtledove has commenced a six-volume alternate-history series, "The War That Came Early" which has World War II commencing in 1938. The first book is "Hitler's War".

    It sounds interesting but I wish Turtledove would restrict himself a little. 'Agent of Byzantium' and 'Guns of the South' were great in exploring counter-factual concepts but I agree that nowadays he drags things out far too much.

    A trilogy is probably acceptable but these multiple volumes need a lot of commitment to work through, partly as the length means the plot and the characters develop so slowly. I suppose it is more profitable for him to write a sextet and anyway this seems to be the expectation of readers of science fiction and fantasy fiction especially in the USA.
