Darkness Descending — Harry Turtledove

In a world where magic and war collide, the battle for survival rages on.

In the second volume of Hugo award-winning author Harry Turtledove's epic alternate history series, the World War rages on in a realm where magic reigns supreme. Algarvian soldiers round up Kaunians and send them west to Unkerlant, where work camps await. Despite Algarvian assurances, those left behind fear the worst.

Meanwhile in Kuusamo, scholars desperately seek to uncover the connection between the laws of similarity and contagion. Whispers of the Algarvian work camps abound, though many cannot believe such atrocities are possible. But the mages know the truth, feeling the immense loss of life deep within their souls.

As Turtledove's vivid cast of characters in Darkness Descending takes on a life of its own, readers witness the war from all sides, understanding that in the face of death and destruction, there are no true victors. Blending military fantasy, sword and sorcery, and epic war story elements, this gripping tale reimagines World War II in a world where magic and sea monsters are as real as the conflict that engulfs it.
