James Young, Slinger of Tales
A Master of Alternate History
Featured Release
Missives From the Green
“Halfway down the trail to Hell, in a shady meadow green…”
Fiddler’s Green. A pleasant rest stop halfway to the Styx, the Green was originally accessed by nautical service to the English Crown. Alas, it has currently been infringed upon by those felled while mounted upon noble steeds both living and mechanical. This collection contains six “What ifs…” of military alternate history whose characters would certainly qualify as its eternal denizens.
So go ahead and empty the proverbial canteen and prepare to be regaled once more by a “Master of Alternate History.” There’s plenty of “sabers keen” and “fierce melees” to be found in this collection of clashes that might have been.

What Others Are Saying
“Great stuff. Authentic, plausible, and action packed. I finished [Against the Tide Imperial] and immediately had to buy the others on Kindle…”
– Taylor Anderson, author of The Destroyermen series.
“With the launch of “Acts of War”, author James Young shows himself to be a master of that science fiction sub-genre called ‘Alternate History’. Exceptionally well written and deftly crafted into a compelling read from beginning to end, “Acts of War” is very highly recommended and will leave its fully entertained readers looking eagerly toward the next installment of this outstanding series.”
– Midwest Book Review
“As a maritime historian, I was very pleasantly surprised by how true Young’s naval combat scenes ring.”
-Daniel Butler, author of December 7, 1941 and Unsinkable
