"Turtledove's universe and world-building are so real in this series that it is a relief when one remembers that this history exists only in the realm of things imagined." -- A.M. Dellamonica, Scifi.com

"Like someone watching a slow-motion train wreck, I am fascinated by the new history that Turtledove is writing." -- William Alan Ritch, Scifi Dimensions

"THE VICTORIOUS OPPOSITION might not be right for newcomers to alternative history, or even newcomers to Turtledove, but it is a solid novel—one of the author’s best in years— and it can be recommended to all fans." -- Chris Wyatt, Cinescape

"The book could have stood a careful edit and some trimming, but Turtledove's story-telling overcomes these limitations." -- BooksForABuck
