      Orson Scott Card wrote a very satisfying book called Pastwatch that deals with the alternate timeline.

      Just you know, death the author and all that.

          There’s some deep psychology at play for a person who writes books dealing with bigotry, xenophobia and the worst human attitudes, but then reflects all of those traits himself. I don’t have the energy anymore to try to dissect it, at least he’s not a highly vocal billionaire trying to advocate for shit.
