The World In Flames. Gosh, Isn’t That Depressingly Familiar?
Some readers may recall that I had an alternative history novel published a few years back, Napoleon Concerto, in which a money mad Robert Fulton actually carries through on his original, historical plan to build a steam powered navy for Napoleon, thus enabling the Corsican to finally fulfill his dream of invading Great Britain. The book’s out of print now, but an excerpt was published in 2012 by Knightwatch Press as part of an military SF anthology entitled Battlespace. Note that proceeds from the sale of this anthology go to Warrior Cry, a group of volunteers who provide wounded soldiers with musical instruments and then teach them to play.
