"But now and again, the traveler reaches eminences where he sees...the deathless deeds of the great who have passed to Valhalla..." - George S. Patton

This collection contains "What ifs..." of military alternate history so daring their heroes would be welcomed into any warriors' hall:

Stand on the deck of the H.M.S. Illustrious off the Falkland Islands as the Royal Navy sails into the first carrier battle since 1945 in "Fate of the Falklands"In "The Lightnings and the Cactus," see what happens when an unfortunate heart attack leads to P-38 Lightnings arriving at Henderson Field in October 1942Ride with M-18 Hellcats as they come to the aid of Task Force Smith in "Mr. Dewey's Tank Corps"Finally, witness Vice Admiral Lee's Task Force 34 clash with the Imperial Japanese Navy's Center Force in the novella Wonder No More.

Ten years after the Acts of War's publications, long-term Usurper's War readers will also be thrilled to find two entries in James Young's signature universe:

"Winifred," the origin story in which a lost RAF bomber crew jettisons their payload...and changes historyThe Victorious Meeting, a novella that not only tells the story of the Royal Navy's actions in Against the Tide Imperial, but sets the stage for A Feather Upon the Waves, the final novel in the series.

Whether you're a new alternate history fan or an experienced traveler of the multiverse, you'll find great tales within Dispatches from Valhalla. So grab the proverbial mead horn, erm, beverage of choice and prepared to be regaled once more by tales of battles that never were...but could have been.
