Author: Harry Turtledove
Description:
In his groundbreaking "Worldwar" series, Harry Turtledove introduced the Race, a technically-advanced army of alien lizards that struck at the battlefields where Hitler clashed with Stalin and the Japanese Empire took on the United States. They prevailed, though humanity still resisted their seemingly inevitable conquest. The Colonisation sequence continued the story of the Race's war with our kind through the 1950s and 1960s. Now, finally recognising that the humans must in the end prevail, the Race prepares to withdraw. But will they - or we - survive the final epic battles? About the Author Harry Turtledove has lived in Southern California all his life He has a Ph.D. in history from the University of California at Los Angeles and has taught at UCLA, California State Fullerton and California State University, Los Angeles. He has written many works of speculative fiction and fantasy. He is married to the novelist Laura Frankos and they have three daughters.
