3.0

I thought that the world was pretty planned out and the concept interesting. I liked reading about the Washington-like character in Voctor Radcliff and all the changes that came from having America Atlantis. It was also interesting to read about the thoughts of Victor during the battles and his conversations with other people that reveal the man, and not just the historical figure that he would later become. However the book was a bit droll at times describing battle after battle until the British are eventually weathered down, which stuck closely with real-life events. The brief dialogue between characters were interesting, but a bot digressive sometimes, making me feel like there would be a sequel. It was a good read, though not one I might read again and again.
