Review - 'To Climates Unknown'

Sounds like that rarest of birds, commercial alternate history written to the standards of the enthusiast kind. Definitely curious about it.

Its self published I believe. The author is an outsider in terms of AH experience, he's open about not having read in the genre, but I'd put him closer to us than say Turtledove.

(He actually approached SeaLion Press about publishing it but the timing didn't work)
 
Just finished it. Certainly one of the best highbrow AH works I've ever read. The Rice and Salt inspiration is there and massive, and I honestly feel that the conclusion (where KSR kind of stumbled, IMO), is actually better than its predecessor.
