What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Writers don’t come much better than Taylor Anderson, and Purgatory’s Shore is Anderson at his best.“—Jack Campbell, New York Times bestselling author
“Anderson masterfully digs into detailed military strategy and battle action while forcing his characters to reconsider the racial biases and religious dogma of the mid-19th century. This is a must read for fans of Harry Turtledove and other alternate-history authors.”—Booklist
“The writing is first-rate and the clash of technologies is a terrific example of science fiction’s ability to ask, “what if.” Highly Recommended.“—Amazing Stories
“Anderson deftly switches his military and social focus to an earlier milieu of muskets and slavery, adding new layers to the history of this alternate Earth while providing longtime fans with plenty of recognizable touches. This is a promising series starter.”—Publishers Weekly
