Description:

Another alternate history book (vice weird WW2) based on a delay of Barabrossa until 1942, and in turn Hitler was able to convince his Japanese allies to delay their Perl Harbour attack also for a coordinated effect. As a consequence, the Germans refocus their 1941 strategy on consolidating their holdings in the Eastern Mediterranean after the Greece and Crete campaigns, and supporting the Afrika Korps. All else follows from those key decisions. What makes this book really enjoyable is that the author is a wargamer, and gamed the scenarios he postulates to ensure they were realistic. What that means is that scenarios literally fall out of this book, including orders of battle. I'm only on the third chapter so far, but loving it. The diversions from historical timeline are clearly delineated, and the compounding effects are easy to follow.
