A brilliant Shakespearean myth parallel.īaxter, Stephen. Castrati politics in a world without a Reformation. First of a children's series of adventure novels set in an alternate Stuart England.Īmis, Kingsley. The Wolves of Willoughby Chase (Doubleday, 1963). With a good enough setting, one can overlook such flaws.Īiken, Joan. These stories, anthologies, and novels primarily concentrate on the nitty-gritty of the alternate history (AH) setting in question, some of them to the exclusion of plot or character. Beam Piper's Lord Kalvan of Otherwhen combines an in-depth AH setting (an Indo-Aryan America trapped in medievalism) with cross-dimensional politics (the Paratime Police and its concerns) with the classic time-travel trope of the resourceful castaway who brings modern technology (in this case, gunpowder) to a primitive milieu. FictionĬategories are fluid at best some of the early classics, especially, slop over into more than one. Absolute musts, the best of the best or pioneering works in the genre, are adorned with a star (*).
