Описание:
Гарри Тертлдав (Harry Turtledove) Родился: 14 июня 1949 г.

В 1977 г. получил степень доктора философии, защитив диссертацию по истории Византии.
Интерес и знание истории отразились на всем творчестве Тертлдава — он известен своими книгами в жанре альтернативной истории. Впервые опубликовался в 1979 г. под псевдонимом Эрик Г. Иверсон. По словам самого автора, его издатель посчитал, что книги изданные под его собственной фамилией (Turtledove — дикий голубь), читатели не воспримут всеръез. Но с 1985 г. Тертлдав сменив издателя, пишет уже под своим собственным именем. Затем последовал ряд произведений малой формы; лучшие из них собраны в сборнике «Калейдоскоп» (1990). Новеллы «Несовпадение» (1988) и «Сжатие Земли» (1991) определенно относятся к жанру «твердой» НФ. Что необычно для Тертлдава, действие в них происходит не в альтернативном мире, а на Земле. Однако в романе «Иная плоть» (1988) описываются события, происходящие в «других» США, а в романе «Мир различий» (1989) советский и американский исследовательские экипажи сталкиваются на «другом» Марсе.
На сегодня Гарри Тертлдав один из признанных авторитетов исторической фантастики. Является номинантом и обладателем многих премий в области литературы. Наибольшую известность ему принес так называемый «Видесский цикл». Он включает в себя три серии, связанных общим миром. По хронологии первыми идут 4 романа серии «Смутные времена» — действие за 150 лет до «Сказаний о Криспе». Действие самих хроник пропавшего легиона, цикл «Видессос», происходит спустя 650 лет после «Смутных времен». Какое бы произведение Тертлдава вы не читали, все они отличаются точностью деталей, интересным сюжетом и логичной концовкой. Будь это фэнтези «Свалка токсичных заклинаний» или же альтернативная история о войне Севера и Юга — читатель всегда получит удовольствие от хорошего чтения.

I

THE SUN OF NORTHERN GAUL WAS PALE, NOTHING LIKE THE hot, lusty torch that flamed over Italy. In the dim stillness beneath the trees, its light came wan, green, and shifting, almost as if undersea. The Romans pushing their way down the narrow forest track took their mood from their surroundings. They moved quietly; no trumpets or bawdy marching songs announced their coming. The daunting woods ignored them.
Peering into the forest, Marcus Aemilius Scaurus wished he had more men. Caesar and the main Roman army were a hundred miles to the southwest, moving against the Veneti on the Atlantic coast. Scaurus’ three cohorts—“a reconaissance in force,” his superior had called them—were more than enough to attract the attention of the Gauls, but might be unable to deal with it, once attracted.
“Only too right,” Gaius Philippus answered when the tribune said that aloud. The senior centurion, hair going gray and face tanned and lined by a lifetime on campaign, had long ago lost optimism with the other illusions of his youth. Though Scaurus’ birth gave him higher rank, he had the sense to rely on his vastly experienced aide.
Gaius Philippus cast a critical eye on the Roman column. “Close it up, there!” he rasped, startlingly loud in the quiet. His gnarled vine-staff badge of office thwacked against his greave to punctuate the order. He quirked an eyebrow at Scaurus. “You’ve nothing to worry about anyway, sir. One look and the Gauls will think you’re one of theirs on a masquerade.”
The military tribune gave a wry nod. His family sprang from Mediolanum in northern Italy. He was tall and blond as any Celt and used to the twitting his countrymen dished out. Seeing he’d failed to hit a nerve, Gaius Philippus took another tack. “It’s not just your looks, you know—that damned sword gives you away, too.”
That hit home. Marcus was proud of his blade, a three-foot Gallic longsword he had taken from a slain Druid a year ago. It was fine steel and better suited to his height and reach than the stubby Roman gladii. “You know full well I had an armorer give it a decent point,” he said. “When I use a sword, I’m not such a fool as to slash with it.”
“A good thing, too. It’s the point, not the edge, that brings a man down. Hello, what’s this about?” Gaius Philippus added as four of the small army’s scouts dashed into the woods, weapons in hand. They came out a few moments later, three of them forcibly escorting a short, scrawny Gaul while the fourth carried the spear he had borne.
As they dragged their captive up to Scaurus, their leader, an underofficer named Junius Blaesus, said, “I’d thought someone was keeping an eye on us this past half hour and more, sir. This fellow finally showed himself.”

Atvar, the commander of the Race’s conquest fleet, poked a control with a fingerclaw. A holographic image sprang into being above the projector in the fleetlord’s office. In the forty years since the conquest fleet came to Tosev 3 (half that many local years), he had grown all too intimately familiar with that particular image.
So had Kirel, shiplord of the 127th Emperor Hetto, the bannership of the conquest fleet. The body paint on his scaly, green-brown hide was more ornate than every other male’s save only Atvar’s. His mouth fell open in amusement, revealing a great many small, sharp teeth. A slight waggle to his lower jaw gave his laughter a sardonic twist.
“Once more we behold the mighty Tosevite warrior, eh, Exalted Fleetlord?” he said. He ended the sentence with an interrogative cough.
“Even so, Shiplord,” Atvar answered. “Even so. He does not look as if he would cause us much trouble, does he?”
“By the Emperor, no,” Kirel said. Both Atvar and he swiveled their turreted eyes so they looked down at the ground for a moment: a gesture of respect for the sovereign back on distant Home.
As Atvar had done so many times before, he walked around the hologram to view it from all sides. The Tosevite male was mounted on a hairy local quadruped. He wore a tunic of rather rusty chain armor, and over it a light cloth coat. A pointed iron helmet protected his braincase. Tufts of yellowish hair grew like dry grass on his scaleless, pinkish cheeks and jaw. For armament, he had a spear, a sword, a knife, and a shield with a cross painted in red on it.
A long, hissing sigh escaped Atvar. “If only it had been as easy as we thought it would be.”
“Truth, Exalted Fleetlord,” Kirel said. “Who would have thought the Big Uglies”-the nickname the Race used for its Tosevite subjects and neighbors-“could have changed so much in a mere sixteen hundred years?”
“No one,” Atvar said. “No one at all.” He used a different cough this time, one that emphasized the words preceding it. They deserved emphasis. The Race-and the Hallessi and Rabotevs, whose planets the Empire had ruled for thousands of years-changed only very slowly, only very cautiously. For the Race, one millennium was like another. After sending a probe to Tosev 3, everyone back on Home had blithely assumed the barbarians there would not have changed much by the time the conquest fleet arrived.
Never in its hundred thousand years of unified imperial history-and never in the chaotic times before, for that matter-had the Race got a larger and more unpleasant surprise. When the conquest fleet did reach Tosev 3, it found not sword-swinging savages but a highly industrialized world with several empires and not-empires battling one another for dominance.
