I finished Stephen Fry's Making History a few days ago. This book didn't wow me. It wasn't awful, but it was weak. The first part goes into a lot of detail then the second part feels like "whoops, don't have enough pages left to get to the end, let's throw things together quick!" It's an alternate history based plot, Alternate history has been around a long time and covered by many very talented writers. This book centers around an era that has probably had more alternate history/parallel worlds stories written about it than any other. If you're going to play in a field like that, you better bring your absolute best game. This one sort of felt like, we'll not bad, but you have plot holes and a lot of people have done similar in more interesting variations.
