THINK ABOUT HISTORY.
NOW MAKE IT WORSE . . .

The Domination of the Draka begins as a British possession in Africa, but soon becomes far more. Absorbing refugees after the American Revolution, and later the Civil War, the Draka become a people bred to rule with an iron fist. They permanently enslave the peoples of Africa, when they do not simply kill them.

But this does not slake the Draka thirst for power. Sweeping across the world, the Draka empire engulfs nation after nation, shackling into servitude all who are not Draka. Europe, Asia, and finally all the Earth and its colonies throughout the Solar System fall before the might of the Draka.

But empires are not faceless monoliths; they are made of individuals, complex humans with their own hopes and dreams. And so one might ask: Who are the Draka What sort of people does the Domination rule The Draka would have many different answers . . .

. . . and this is their story.

At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

" . . an exciting, evocative [and] horrifying read." —Poul Anderson

"A vivid alternate reality . . . truly a tour de force." —David Drake

"A potent, unflinching look at a might-have-been world whose evil both contrasts with and reflects that in our own." —Publishers Weekly

". . . superb action scenes, interesting characters, and a detailed if somewhat grisly world." —Chicago Sun-Times

S. M. Stirling is the author of the Draka trilogy. Set in a parallel universe, a nation founded on slavery and the United States battle for domination of the world. The trilogy was recently republished in one huge volume as The Domination. Stirling has also written Drakon, a novel of a Draka warrior hurled into our world, and edited a companion volume, Drakas! Among his collaborations are the popular General series with David Drake, the novel, The Children's Hour, with Jerry Pournelle, and the national bestseller, The City Who Fought, with Anne McCaffrey. He and his wife live in Santa Fe, NM.

Some people complain about the premises behind this series and I can understand their points, but all of the books are great reads. The characters are well-developed and the world hangs together better than many others. Just do it. If you haven't read 'Peshawar Lancers' for something completely different, do it now.

Clever book.

This is a disturbing book. An alternative history, where all of the sides are equally evil. Just a bit too heavy for me to give 5 stars.

Mehrere unzusammenhängende Kurzgeschichten rund um das Draka-Universum, in welchem ein aus Buren und Sklavenhaltern hervorgegangenes Imperium in Afrika die Weltherrschaft an sich reißt. Die Kurzgeschichten geben einen tieferen Einblick in das Universum und verweisen oft auf die Hauptbücher. Einige Beispiele sind die Geschichte um einen Wissenschaftler, der nach dem 2. WK in Draka eingebürgert wurde, die Schlacht im Kaukasus aus Sicht einer Zeitgenossin des Hauptprotagonisten und schließlich die Unterhaltung zweier Buren über den Russisch-japanischen Krieg.
