Go read the original novel.

I know who the man in the high castle is/was supposed to be.

Hint: said man wrote a book that became a movie about killing bugs.

The story wasn't at all the war story you would think.

It was more dystopian sci-fi with a partially occupied US as the setting and the machinations of a post-Hitler Third Reich as the backdrop.

Ah, without even looking to be sure, I believe that "The Man in the High Castle" was written by Philip Dick.  FWIW, I've read both.

And be sure to take the time to write a decent little review there if you liked it and want to see it take off.....I thought it was excellent and have my fingers crossed.

Pretty sure Phillip K. Dick's novel which this TV pilot is based on predates that one. The book was boring from what I remember. So at least they are true to the source material.

With the Prince wanting to shift the juvenile age upwards to 18 some of those adult prisons he wants to close will doubtless be re-purposed as juvenile facilities.
There's no way to add two more years to the definition of a juvenile and not add more beds to the juvenile detention system....

Fatherland was published in 1992.

I've often wondered what the world would be like if Hitler had won.  How long it would be before his attack on the USA would have started.  In today's environment with zero in charge, I almost think he could take us.  Hell, a dozen terrorists have wiped away much freedom we used to enjoy... ah, the good old days - not that very long ago.



Anyone notice France just tossed up the possibility of a Patriot Act and it was stomped from the start... "we don't want to end up like the USA" - but imagine that in french words with a french accent.  And we say they surrender - nope, we've surrendered and the french fight on.
