    Unimaginative at best
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2019*

Conroy has this annoying habit of selecting potentially great plot lines then boring the reader to death.  Many have note that his characters are simply caricatures - barbaric Bolsheviks, cruel Nazis, brave English, etc  The dialogues and in particular the military ones come off as "novel talk" - what folks say in books and not in real life.  Two huge problems:  logic and those forgettable characters.Historically, it's a huge mess.  Japan never considered invading the USSR, Germany was not close to a bomb, etc. Over and over Conroy has Nazi Germany defeating the UK and the USSR...then losing the war!  The Russians lose their entire leadership and recover in Siberia? It makes no sense in any universe.  Himmler suspends the "Final Solution" yet alienates non-Russians within the USSR?  Characters are literally interchangeable / forgettable.  I began skipping whole sections filled with trite and unrelated drivel like bad romances, political jabber and the interminable gushing of weapon factoids and troop movements.  And despite vast differences in history, it all comes out the same!  My Grade - D

    A good trashy AH book about what if Hitler was killed just after D-Day landings.
  

*by C***. on Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2016*

So I like to read alternative history novels from time to time, because if they are well written and the history is well researched; it makes for a fun game of "what if" to be played out in my mind.The gimmick here is that Hitler is killed by an errant stick of bombs from a B-17. The "what-if" question is that how would the war in Europe have progressed if Hitler wasn't making poor decisions about army movements and how the army should fight, let alone what weapons the German's should produce.The book starts only a few weeks after D-Day and follows two main characters, one is a USAAF pilot who is afraid to fly and the other is a senior German military officer who works on the OKB (the German equivalent of the Joint Chiefs of Staff). When Hitler is killed, Heinrich Himmler takes over as leader of Nazi Germany. He gives some concessions to the OKB about military troops, receives peace with Stalin and give the German Army free reign to make the war in France harder to win compared to the actual rout it was by the end of 1944.  There are some historical inaccuracies, such as the use of a nuclear weapon early on by Germans against one of the allied nations. However, for the most part the story seems to roll well based on what most historians studying the battle for the liberation of France expected if the Germans fought competently. The biggest difficulty for me in reading this book though was the number of minor characters that fleshed out some of the events that were to occur off stage from what the main characters were experiencing. It was difficult without a character bill to keep everyone straight. Additionally, there seemed to me more sex scenes in this book than I expected. Nothing pornographic, but some serious purple prose was inserted when one of the main characters ran across his love interest in some of the most unusual times. Having read a few of Conroy's other books, I half expected this but this time it almost seemed as if instead of a ton of action with a little bit of romance, the formula was reversed and there was a little bit of action with a ton of romance. I half expected to see one of the minor or even major characters engage in a purple prose filled sex scene right in the middle of one of the major set piece battles during this book. That was a major distraction to the flow of the story.Realistically, most of Conroy's books could be taken apart by a serious historical student. But for a trashy read on an airplane or on the beach or at lunch while at work and you don't want something thick. Well then this is decent, not four or five stars; but 3 stars and even at points that is reaching for it by that moment you finish the book and think it over in your mind.

    Interesting story, but the part about the German bomb just plain wrong.
  

*by N***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2018*

In the last year or so of the war in Europe, the aliies best friend was Adolf Hitler.  His incompetent handling of the war really helped out the allies.  Without him, the war would have been much more difficult.  Main flaw in this book was the part about the German atomic bomb.  They weren't even started on the process of making an A bomb.  It took the industrial might of the US 3 years to produce one.  There is no way a heavily bombed Germany could have created one in the last year of the war.
