Historical Editorial Review

"The Iron Dream" is a pulp fiction novel set in an alternate world where Ferric Jaggar struggles to unite the people of Helder to restore their dominance over the racially inferior mutants and mongrels. The book, written by Adolph Hitler himself and published shortly before his untimely death, is a satire of the genre and its relation to fascism. While some readers found the book disgusting and slow, others enjoyed it as a blast of light adventure full of violence and gore. The afterword attempts to provide a fitting punchline to the joke of a story, but some readers found it too quick and academic. Overall, the book is an interesting read, but readers should be prepared for its abundance of Nazi imagery and its deliberate unenjoyable writing style.
