First one I read was 'In the Presence on Mine Enemies', which totally rocked. I'm not totally sold on Turtledove because it's quite clear he went from writing AU scenarios straight into novels and he hasn't quite worked out the difference yet.
I think this is one of the only books everyone in my head unanimously hated; Erik and Charles were disgusted at the protayal death camp survivors got, Elric and everyone unafilliated were put off by all the characters behaving like dicks, and the nazis spent the whole time not daring to look because oh god this was awful and they didn't want to see what happened next. Until the end. They liked the end, which is the only bit I can read without feeling sick.
