Reviews for Atlantis and Other Places
20 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A darn good collection of Turtledove's alt history stories, covering a wide swath of time from early history with centaurs to quirky sci-fi with aliens stealing thrones. The book begins and ends with longer works in the setting of Atlantis in the 19th century. What I enjoyed most about these stories is how he built the worlds. These really aren't action-heavy works; most tend to be intriguing slow burns, which suited my mood perfectly.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Garbage. Can anyone tell a story anymore without being politically motivated and having an agenda? Really kind of off putting. Shame because I liked his Conan story.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A mixed bag of short stories, some with very interesting concept, some others not so good, especially the Atlantis ones.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Even really good authors have dull books.
