NEXT -> TRIBUTES Meditations on Middle-earth: Harry Turtledove Extract from "The Ring and I" by Harry Turtledove, to be published in Meditations on Middle-earth I read The Hobbit and the trilogy obsessively. In the year after finding them, I must have gone through them, appendices and all, six or eight times. This was, of course, my freshman year at an academically demanding institution. Falling head over heels in love with The Lord of the Rings Nor was I the only one at Caltech caught up in Tolkien's spell. There were about ten of us, three or four, as luck would have it, in my residence house. We would get together when we could to try to stump one another with obscure quotations, to seek to work out the meanings of Elvish words, and to argue about things as abstruse and unprovable as how well a Roman legion suddenly transported to the universe of The Lord of the Rings might fare: of this last, more anon. Such was my reasoning. I should also note at this point that I was already trying to become a writer. I'd tried to write three different novels, and had actually finished one (none of this work, I hasten to add, came within miles of being publishable). The summer of 1967 was among the blackest times of my life. I had no idea how to cope with academic failurethinking I could excel without studying much, as I had in high school, was another contributing factor, and not such a small one, to my flunking out of Caltech. God help me, I still have the manuscript. The one thing I can truthfully say is that I meant no harm. (I take that back. I can say one other thing: I am not the individual mentioned in letter 292 of

CONTENTS Art Gallery Articles Columns ... Forum Settling Accounts: In at the Death by Harry Turtledove Reviewed by Nader Elhefnawy 05 October 2007 Settling Accounts: In at the Death An innovative combination of alternate history's two most common themes (the American Civil War and World War II), the series assumes that the South succeeded in breaking away from the Union. Much as in Ward Moore's classic Bring the Jubilee (1953), the Confederacy afterwards stretches from sea to shining sea, to the chagrin of the embittered, altered North. However, while in Moore's version the Union was prostrate before a dominant South, in Turtledove's the U.S. was still ready and willing to put up a fight, which put the Union and Confederacy on opposite sides of the European balance of power some fifty years later. The South is allied with Britain and France, which, as in many of the historians' counterfactuals about such a scenario, were instrumental to their victory; the North has come together with Wilhelmine Germany to face their common foes. In at the Death What follows from there is certainly more engaging than the comparative disappointment of The Grapple , which now appears to have been written because Turtledove had a bit too much for even three packed books, and not quite enough for four really satisfying ones. However, for all its imperfections

ShadowLife Home About Firefox / Thunderbird Plugins ... Review: Homeward Bound by Harry Turtledove Note: Contains no spoilers This entire series see also Throughout the entire series, the Race has always thought themselves not just superior, but destined to succeed. They also hold an attitude that their way is the only way (with regard to biology, sociology, religion, rights and conquest), even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. In this part of the series, this is made all the more blatant, and all the more painful because of it. One thing that H.T. has always been successful in doing is writing in such a manner that one ends up rooting for all sides in a conflict. Here is no exception. As is usual, the book has a number of shocker plot twists - they are very enjoyable but the setup for one in particular is very irritating, as it drags on for the better part of a chapter, and no speculation is done on its consequences. Eventually this part is resolved, and the resultant development has about the same impact on the plot as the first atomic bombs. On the same note, the book skips around slightly less, though eventually the characters are spread around as much as usual so that there is little option but to alternate from place to place.

About the Author Book Description Count Hamnet Thyssen is a minor noble of the drowsy old Raumsdalian Empire. Its capital city, Nidaros, began as a mammoth hunters’ camp at the edge of the great Glacier. But that was centuries ago, and as everyone knows, it’s the nature of the great Glacier to withdraw a few feet every year. Now Nidaros is an old and many-spired city; and though they still feel the breath of the great Glacier in every winter’s winds, the ice cap itself has retreated beyond the horizon. Trasamund, a clan chief of the mammoth-herding Bizogots, the next tribe north, has come to town with strange news. A narrow gap has opened in what they'd always thought was an endless and impregnable wall of ice. The great Glacier does not go on foreverand on its other side are new lands, new animals, and possibly new people. Ancient legend says that on the other side is the Golden Shrine, put there by the gods to guard the people of their world. Now, perhaps, the road to the legendary Golden Shrine is open. Who could resist the urge to go see?

Carpe Datum Main May 25, 2004 Harry Turtledove In my latest attempt to avoid the depressing reality these stupid people in power have put our country in, I will review another speculative fiction author. Today it's Harry Turtledove, who writes a lot of alternative histories. For example, he has written a series about what would happen if an alien race had tried to conquer the Earth during World War II. This series, like many of his storylines (he's very prolific, I wish I liked his work better) has been expanded past the original four, but I never read further. He has also written a book (" The Guns of the South ") about a bunch of white supremacists who go back in time to 1864 and provide the confederacy with AK-47's for every soldier in order to turn the tide of the war (also expanded upon in later books). Both are decently readable, not great. Turtledove is consistently good. Anyway, my favorite of his is " The Videssos Cycle ", about a Roman legion transported to a fantasy world. They become mercenaries for the dominant power, and the four-book cycle follows their adventures (the four books, in order, are "The Misplaced Legion", "An Emperor for the Legion", "The Legion of Videssos" and "Swords of the Legion"). Sort of like Glen Cook's "Black Company", but the characters weren't quite as memorable, so the quality is not quite as good as Cook's original trilogy (it does compare favorably to Cook's later books, though). There is a companion trilogy to this called " The Tale of Krispos " ("Krispos Rising", "Krispos of Videssos" and "Krispos the Emperor"), sort of a prequel to the Videssos books, and it stands well on its own, and there are a few other books set in the same world lately, I believe.

A narrow gap has opened in what they'd always thought was an endless and impregnable wall of ice.

Now they'll be traveling beyond it into a world that's bigger than anyone knew. Adventures will surely be had... My thoughts Beyond the Gap almost breaks the rules that I spell out to the right, but since it is a fantasy rather than a historical drama, it qualifies for inclusion on this blog. Anyway, after spending the last three evenings reading it, I felt it would have been a waste not to review it. The novel is an odd mix of Clan of the Cave Bear and . It is a swords and sorcery tale that substitutes mammoths and short-faced bears for dragons and unicorns, and it is set in a fantasy version of

@import "style.css"; HOME BOOKS The Cunning Blood by Jeff Duntemann ... CONTACT US Every Inch A King by Harry Turtledove Cover by Bob Eggleton It's Good to Be the King. They say that everyone has a twin somewhere and when Otto of Schlepsig sees the picture of Prince Halim Eddin, he realizes that he's not only found his twin, but his ticket out of the third rate circus run by Dooger and Cark. Instead of performing on a tightrope for the marks, he's taking his act to Shqiperi, where the Prince has been invited to become their new king, a role that Otto is more than happy to assume himself. Shqiperi bargained for Halim Eddin, raised in a royal household, to be their ruler. But when Otto, a rogue with very specific ideas about the duties of a king, arrives in his place, they get something that they never bargained for. If rank has its privileges, Otto intends to enjoy all of them. Every Inch a King is a humorous fantasy filled with feats of derring-do, wondrous magic, and beautiful maide... well, beautiful women. Otto and Max find that they have entered a royal world that is truly fantastic. And perhaps most fantastic of all, it is based on a true story.
