I agree - it's incredibly traumatic!

And I'm not that taken with Harry Turtledove either. The jury's still out on that one.

For quite good Alt-History I'd recommend Eric Flint's Belisarius series set in Byzantium/India/Persia circa 420 AD and, best of all, the first three can be downloaded free from www.baen.com

I love electronic books. I can get so many more big thick books in my bag when they're on my PalmPilot. :)

I'd also recommend Alison Brooks web page

http://www.flin.demon.co.uk/#main

Particularly the Sealion demolition, and the Star Wars Villains essay will probably appeal to you.

Don't you find that results in a squashed PalmPilot?
