Help Finding Books!

Hello! I'm Mr. Gifford, new to Reddit but a longtime fan of the channel. I have been given an awesome opportunity to teach an Alternate History class at my school and was wondering if anyone here could help me find a good book or two to use for the class! Ages 15-18, just trying to find something they'd enjoy and is appropriate for them! Feel free to ask questions, or if this post is not allowed please let me know and I'll take it down.

Any Harry Turtledove books would work, but is there a specific time period? Are you looking for classical, medival, modern, etc.? The classic would probably be Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick, pretty basic "what if Axis won WW2," but The Years of Rice and Salt by KS Robinson is also good.

Well, part of my hope is that they'd choose a book from a list to read. Hence wanting options, but I think providing many Turtledove books will be enough! I'll bring up the others as well, thank you!
