The two principal characters are investigators Muslim Khalid al-Zarzisi and Jew Dawud ibn Musa. Europe is also extremely religious, with the Catholic Church calling the shots. Europe, on the other hand, is besieged by warfare, terrorist attacks by fanatics, and the oppression of women and other minorities. The setting of the book is in an alternate universe where the Muslim world is superior, with advanced technology, world-class medicine and science, a democracy where people enjoy equal rights and are happy, and where the food is plentiful. Through Darkest Europe is the latest alternate history novel by Harry Turtledove. ![]()
