It looks like this series of Turtledove will conclude this July.


I hope there's a better mix of characters to give us better perspective rather than basically be all grunts or minor civilians.

Why is it $14 for kindle? I wouldn't charge that much even if I created a masterpiece of human literature.

Has anyone read this enough to know why a desperate Hitler is declaring war on America?

From the description it just doesn't sound that good.

It sounds really bad. I like Harry Turtledove and this series started with promise but it quickly became ehh so soon. I just don't care what happens anymore.

Which only reinforces my question: why 14 dollars?

Why would a "desparate" Hitler declare war on the US? Is Turtledove just going through the motions to finish this series?

I would guess marketing. Americans will be more interested in it, generally speaking, if America is directly involved.

Hey at least the cover art is awesome....

Eh, cover's meh if you ask me. Looks like someone just WWII-ified the game cover to Tom Clancy's EndWar game and slapped a gold version of the Medaille d'Honneur in reverse and a different(?) year of establishment.

What do you think a good Kindle price would be?

Probably because the US is still supplying Britain and France, even though Hitler told them not to. And the US war with Japan isn't going so hot for the US. It's actually pretty low risk on paper for Hitler.

What do you think a good Kindle price would be?

Less than a large paperback, that's for sure. The whole point in e-books (well, one of the points) is to reduce cost. You don't need to tool a press for them or pay for material and labor to assemble the books. I would charge 5.00 for my best novels. I'm not sure what's worse, the asking price or that a bunch of people will pay it.

No, it's the latter because they'll give him their money and then turn around complain about the book.
