Title: The Madagaskar Plan

Author: Guy Saville

Narrator: Richard Burnip

Length: 20 hrs and 32 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-15-16

Publisher: Hodder & Stoughton

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Classic

Publisher's Summary:

The most exciting alternate history since Fatherland. A brilliant 'what if' novel of the years after WW2 for fans of The Man in the High Castle.

It's 1953. Britain and her empire are diminished. Nazi Germany controls Europe and a vast African territory. There has been no Holocaust. Instead the Jews have been exiled to Madagaskar, a tropical ghetto ruled by the SS.

Returning home after a disastrous mission to Africa, ex-mercenary Burton Cole finds his lover has disappeared. Desperate to discover her, he is drawn into a conspiracy that will lead him back to the Dark Continent. Meanwhile Walter Hochburg, Nazi governor of Kongo, has turned his attention to Madagaskar.

Among the prisoners are scientists who could develop him a weapon of unimaginable power. But Hochburg is not the only one interested in Madagaskar. The British plan is to destroy its naval base to bring America into a war against the Reich. They have found the ideal man for the task: Reuben Salois, the only Jew to have escaped the ghetto. The only one brave - or foolhardy - enough to return. These three men will converge on Madagaskar. The fate of the world is in their hands....

Drawing on the Nazis' original plans for the Jews, Guy Saville has meticulously imagined a world that nearly was to tell an epic tale of love, revenge and survival.

A Fine (and better written) Second Entry in the Series

This is the first sequel to The Afrika Reich, about a alternative history in which Britain surrendered after Dunkirk and America never got drawn into the Second World War.

Because of this Germany was able to conquer much of Russian, then began expanding on their plans for Africa....and what to do with the Jews. The original plan was to simply export them "anywhere but here", and many of the original plans had Germany relocate them to Madagascar. That's what happens in this novel....set in 1953, Germany has gone about reshaping Europe and Africa both. This particular novel focuses on primary hero of the first novel, Burton Cole, discovering that his wife has exiled him to Madagascar and Cole's journey to rescue her. Along the way he runs into a plot to attach the German naval base and to draw America into the war.

A well written, tightly plotted novel, I rather enjoyed this one more than the second book. I think perhaps there are a couple too many coincidences scattered about but I leave that to author's license--it's a very interesting take on alternative history and "what might have been". Having said that, while I know the focus has been primarily on Germany and the Reich it would be nice to see a bit more about what has happened in Japan and the Pacific theater--we don't get more than quick hints. Perhaps the author will produce a second series detailing the Japanese Co Prosperity Sphere after this?

A fine book...if you're a fan of alternative history you won't be disappointed.

Another great alternative history novel by Guy Saville

Another great alternative history novel by Guy Saville. I really enjoyed his first one - The Afrika Reich - and this second one didn't disappoint, quite the contrary. A very good plot, partly brought from "The Afrika Reich" and some rich, deep characters create a thoroughly consistent and grabbing book that you will find difficult to put down.

Pulp Fiction-- Need I say more?

This is actually from a Pulp Magazine popular in the 30's, 40's, and early 50's. Our country was in crisis. The Great Depression. World War II. Rationing. But these cheaply printed (on pulpwood paper, hence the name) Pulp Magazines were a way of helping distract the public from the horrors of day-to-day life. The characters and plot were "larger than life" as many term them, and read today may seem a bit overdone. But I fell in love with the Pulps with the reprints of Doc Savage, The Shadow, and The Avenger when I was a boy, and I find them very enjoyable. Take a walk though yesteryear with one of these stories. They transcend time. And by the way, Tarzan, Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, and Conan first appeared in these pulps, so you may owe more to them than you know! Quoth the Raven...
