“What if…?”….Of World History
What if the dinosaurs had survived? Or Hitler won in 1945? Or the aeroplane had been invented 1,000 years earlier? Would there even be life on earth if the moon had failed to form? Science fiction writer Stephen Baxter takes an interesting look at the possibilities in The Independent.

If you’re into the “what if” stories I highly recommend the author Harry Turtledove. I own all his books, their all top notch alternative history (as long as you like 1-2 dozen main characters spanning tetrologies with 500-650 pages per book)
Don’t bring up science fiction and alternative history to David Horowitz and Stephen Swartz over at FrontPage and Townhall. They hyperventalated and found their own paranoid rants while attacking “The man in the high castle”. One has to laugh at over raeding the interesting yet disturbed rantings of Philip K. Dick like the nuts at Frontpage. SF and alternative histories are fiction which should inspire thought and enjoymeny. Horowitz find lies and evil in anything of the old Left he has forsaken.
