Summary: An enjoyable mystery in alternative timeline.
Review: An enjoyable mystery set in an alternative timeline where the Cuban Missile Crisis got out of hand. Nuclear war breaks out and the USSR takes out 4 major cities plus some military bases. The US wipes out the USSR. It is now 10 years later and the US is beginning to come out of its economic crisis when a reporter is pulled off a routine murder case of an old veteran due to national security. The old vet had some secret papers and the reporter wants to know what it's all about.

Summary: Great book; Steve from Germany
Review: A great and astonishing book and the best "what-if" story I've read since Fatherland. A pageturner at its best. Good thing to know, that we're on the good side, the one 'without war in 62. Bring it to Germany asap.

Summary: Excellent in all respects.
Review: Resurrection Day is a multi-theme, multi-plot novel that is complex but easy to follow. I am quite familiar with many of the book's topics (including nuclear weapons) and am impressed with the book's authenticity. Resurrection Day is a fascinating and remarkably well written novel.

Summary: well researched, believable and well written
Review: We were very close to war with Russia during the Cuban Missile Crises. What if the unthinkable happened? This novel very credibly depicts post nuclear war America. It's well researched and very entertaining. This is a hard book to put down with great pace and believable characters.

Summary: Someone, please give DuBois a geography text.
Review: Yes, the writing is poor, and there is little character development. The mood and setting are not well developed either, but the big problem is the economic and political geography. America with the minimal damage outlined in the book would not have been in as bad an economic or political state as presented. Other than one major city, New York, the country is presented as largely undamaged. Perhaps Mr. DuBois needs to travel and see how truely large the U.S. is, and the incredible resouces in people, land and industry it holds. I remember 1972, and a rich America beyond New York. Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle, Denver, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City, Detroit, Milwakee, Indianapolis,Cleveland, Columbus, Cinncinati, Buffalo and Pittsburgh to name a few world class cities flourished then and now andunless the book is revised and all major cities in the USA are eliminated as well as all State Capitols and secondary cities, then the premise simply does not work.

Summary: Great Premise; Mediocre Pay-off
Review: Wonderful premise and the allusions to Fatherland are apt. However, the love story seemed obligatory, at best, and the events at the end which led to the invasion being called off were far too insignificant not to logically have been ignored by the would-be invaders.
Rating:
Summary: Great alternate history mystery
Review: I really enjoyed this book, totally spellbinding. I really emphasized with the character and thought the storyline was very believable. I especially enjoyed how the alternate history unfolded piece by piece rather than having it all at once. Great piece of fiction.

Summary: Interesting Premise - Needed One More Edit.
Review: This is an interesting book and worth the read. Start with the premise that the Cuban Missile Crisis develops into the Cuban War and results in a nuclear exchange. Because the U.S. has a superior nuclear arsenal in 1962, the U.S.S.R. is destroyed. The U.S. does not come out unscathed - New York, Washington, San Diego and Omaha, among others, are hit by Soviet atomic bombs. That is the backdrop for the murder of an old veteran and an investigation of the murder by a Boston Globe reporter in 1972. The reporter is an army veteran working in a society in which the concept of a "free press" died in 1962. His investigation begins to shed new light on the events which lead up to the war. The plot is intriguing. However, the writing is uneven. It could have benefitted from one more swipe of the editor's pen. While the book is worth reading by fans of "what if" stories, this may be one case where the movie could be better than the book.

Summary: alternate history as liberal parable
Review: The escalation of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis into a brief, one-sided nuclear war is the founding premise of this noirish alternate-history, which adopts elements of both Philip K. Dick's "The Man in the High Castle" and Whitley Streiber's "Warday" into its own slightly-weird liberal parable. The ghoulish entertainment includes an unguided tour of a radiated Manhattan ghost town (inhabited by subterranean Democrats) as well as glimpses of a stagnant post-war milieu governed by the fussy military censors of a thinly-disguised Gen. Curtis LeMay.
