Death Is Lighter Than a Feather


I haven't yet read this book myself, but noticed it has some very favorable reviews on Amazon.com. It apparently is an alternate history novel specifically about the first six weeks of Operation Olympic (the invasion of Kyushu) I am not sure what the point of divergence is, but the key difference from our world appears to be that atomic weapons are not used against Japan. I also understand that the book includes a prologue (or in some editions, an epilogue) which explains the historical context.
