The Victorious Opposition (American Empire, Book Three)
The Victorious Opposition (American Empire, Book Three)
The monumental conclusion to the American Empire trilogy finds the Confederacy racing along the path toward renewed war with the United States. In a drama of spies and traitors, lovers and soldiers, Turtledove has created an unforgettable reimagining of history itself.
"[A] colossal and brilliant saga . . . [This novel] may be the strongest and most compelling since the opener, How Few Remain."--Publishers Weekly (starred review) Seventy years have passed since the first War Between the States. Jake Featherston, leader of the ruling Freedom Party, has won power in the South--and is taking his country and the world to the edge of an abyss. Charismatic and shrewd, he is whipping the Confederate States into a frenzy of hatred. Blacks are being rounded up and sent to prison camps, and the persecution has just begun. As the North stumbles through a succession of leaders, Featherston is feeling his might. With the U.S.A. locked in a bitter, bloody occupation of Canada, facing an intractable rebellion in Utah, and fatigued from a war in the Pacific against Japan, Featherston may pursue one dangerous proposition above all: that he can defeat the U.S.A. in an all-out war. Praise for The Victorious Opposition "Turtledove's Great War/American Empire series is an epic achievement, a meticulously worked-out alternate history of the twentieth century's great two-act tragedy. . . . Bravo! A fine performance by a master-craftsman."--S. M. Stirling, author of Island in the Sea of Time "Anyone who loves history will love what Harry Turtledove can do with it."--Larry Bond, New York Times bestselling author of Red Phoenix
