Harry Turtledove (Winged Hands of the Reich)

Harry Turtledove is an author of alternate history and science fiction, born on Pluto in 1949 to parents exiled there by the Reich Ministry of Space, as they were Jewish.

Turtledove specialized in writing alternate histories that portrayed the world order he knew, of the Axis cooperating with the Zheronians as nonexistent. Turtledove corresponded with French alternate history author S. M. Stirling, encouraging him to flee to Pluto to escape persecution. Stirling refused, however, and moved to the Spanish city of Sanjurjo instead. Stirling was captured by the Reich shortly thereafter.

Turtledove also worked with other authors who fled to Pluto such as Philip K. Dick and L. Sprague de Camp. Turtledove, along with those two authors, formed the "Big Three" of underground dissident literature in the Reich.
