From Publishers Weekly:
Fans of alternate history and crime fiction should enjoy this high-quality anthology from noted editor Anders (Outside the Box). The tone of the 15 contributions ranges from the tongue-in-cheek (Mike Resnick and Eric Flint's Conspiracies: A Very Condensed 937-Page Novel, featuring an alien abduction of Jimmy Hoffa) to serious political theory (Stephen Baxter's Fate and the Fire-lance, a whodunit set in a 20th-century Roman Empire). Jon Courtenay Grimwood weighs in with Chicago, a twisty tale in which technological advances allow the narrator to plot a perfect murder. The standouts are S.M. Stirling's A Murder in Eddsford, which could be at home in a collection of English cozies, and Mary Rosenblum's Sacrifice, which marries a vision of advanced Aztec civilization to an intricate plot.
