Książka trudna, skłaniająca do myślenia. Opowiadająca o alternatywnej rzeczywistości, w której to Niemcy, Włochy oraz Japonia wygrywają II wojnę światową. Jeśli chodzi o książki, które dzieją się w alternatywnej rzeczywistości, to tylko raz miałam przyjemność zapoznać się taką. Był to "Ja, inkwizy...
