    Review: The Climax

    @Gary Oswald is there a Very Obvious Author Self-Insert somewhere in the story? Because that would perfectly top-off the "my first timeline" checklist

    Review: The Climax

    this was a wild ride of an article @Gary Oswald so hats off to you for managing to summarise this so succinctly you're right - this sounds like someone travelled back a century and published someone's "my first alternate history timeline" complete with random romances and summarising an entire...

    Tales From Development Hell: Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiin

    So firstly @RyanF this is another great article - really enjoy how you lay out the details and especially the details about the script amendments My family and I went to see Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice in the theatre when it came out; and I think the general consensus was that it was okay...

    Alternate History General Discussion

    ah, for the days when I would have grabbed that and started binge-reading it to review here on the blog I wonder how much of a copy-and-paste it'll be of the invasion of Ukraine. "Three days to Salt Lake City" I assume

    Alternate History General Discussion

    How early a functional nuclear weapon could have been produced?

    please, no, I already have so many Operation Sealion ideas to write down you can't just casually throw that out and make me think about "WI: Gustav Stresemann had an Atomic Bomb during the Occupation of the Ruhr" this isn't fair

    Review: The Plot Against America

    On a more serious note, I remember reading the novel when it first came out, as I was on holiday in the US and got a copy, and being surprised that - having been raised on a firm Alternate History diet of Turtledove paperbacks - one could have an Alternate History story concluded in less than...
