3.0

There’s some weird stylistic choices in this alternate history of the Cuban missile crisis wherein the missiles actually flew and delivered the human race too nuclear winter. The story, and the science, are quality, not that I would expect anything less from Pohl. But there are a couple of spots where Pohl the author intrudes into the story with a hypothetical question, and I’m just not sure it added to the whole. It felt like a throwback to the experimental fiction of the 60s/70s.
