Timelines by Theme : Based on existing fiction

This page will try to list all timelines and AH stories written and published on AH.com that include the fictional universes, characters or at least elements of already published or released fiction, particularly fiction belonging to the alternate history and science fiction genres.

As always, the entries are listed alphabetically. However, given the scope of the theme, this page will be divided into :

a.) Genre and medium headings - alternate history, historical fiction, science fiction, fantasy, plus a specification of which medium does the source material originate it.
b.) Sections - sections represent a single specific work or single series (i.e. a novel, a film, or a series of them).
d.) Subsections - subsections occur within sections and cover how the existing IP was used in the timeline/story (is it a crossover, is it a use of the IP's characters and elements, is it an ISOT to that work's fictional universe, etc.).

1. Alternate History Literature

This part of the page covers AH.com works that are based on or inspired by already published alternate history novels, short stories and anthologies. Works, series and anthologies are listed on an author-by-author basis.
