2nd part of a Stalinist novel

[izard]

While flying to a conference, I just finished reading a second part of an althistory novel. Althistory without "popadancy", when written well, could be very entertaining. This one is too, but it is more of a combination of fictional USSR in 1930 and 1970 in 1700's settings in south america.

It is more realistic than 90% of russian althistory, but imminent happy end (probably coming in part 3, yet to be written) is totally unrealistic :)

Thanks a lot lj user blau-kraehe for a tip.
