The civil war in Spain drags on, even after General Franco's death. The United States, still neutral in Europe, fights the Japanese in the Pacific. Russia and Germany go toe-to-toe in Eastern Europe - yet while Hitler stares east, not everything behind him is going as well as he would like. But nothing feeds ingenuity like the fear of losing. The Germans wheel out new tanks and planes, Japan deploys weapons of a very different sort against China, and the United States, England, and France do what they can to strengthen themselves against imminent danger. Seen through the eyes of ordinary citizens caught in the maelstrom, this is a you-are-there chronicle of battle on land and sea and in the air.

Reviews for Two Fronts (#5 War That Came Early)

Praise for Two Fronts [Harry] Turtledove has another major twist in store for the readers and his alternative world. --SF Site Turtledove's new variation on the theme of WWII is departing more and more from the original, sometimes in subtle ways and sometimes in less subtle ones. . . . What's next is anybody's guess, except that it will almost certainly be more surprises. --Booklist Turtledove is the standard-bearer for alternate history. --USA Today Praise for Harry Turtledove If you like alternate histories, you're going to like this series a lot. --The San Diego Union-Tribune Turtledove is the standard-bearer for alternate history. --USA Today Coup d'Etat This is what alternative history is all about. --Historical Novel Society The Big Switch The Hugo Award winner continues to delight in exploring the world of 'what if?' --Library Journal West and East There's plenty to satisfy fans of military strategy, tactics, and armaments. --Publishers Weekly Hitler's War Turtledove is always good, but this return to World War II . . . is genuinely brilliant. . . . The characterizations in particular bring the book to extraordinary life. --Booklist
