Peter the Third. A Leap into the Future

Peter III, who didn’t become the Peter III that history remembers—because from the very beginning he was… a professor of thermotechnics?

In this reality there is no familiar Catherine the Great. There is Lina, the betrothed. There is Ivan Antonovich and his sister Katya. There are steam, steam locomotives, and battles for the future.

And there is one question that will decide everything: who will sit on the throne when the old rules collapse?

Behind him lies the Russo-Swedish War, in which the former professor of thermotechnics—now Peter III—distinguished himself during the storming of Helsingfors. He is on good terms with Empress Elizabeth Petrovna. He is the heir to the Russian throne. And in this reality, Sophia Augusta of Anhalt-Zerbst is no longer claiming his hand and the Russian crown. Ahead of the heir are scientific and technical breakthroughs, steam engines, airships, steam locomotives, steamships, factories, plants, a fleet, a new army, new lands, battles for the future, and endless wars…

But there is also a boy—Ivan Antonovich. Emperor of Russia, co-ruler of Elizabeth Petrovna. And his younger sister Katya—the tsesarevna from the senior branch of the Romanovs. And there is Lina, Peter III’s betrothed, named Catherine Alekseevna. Who will be Great now?
